SPS Species Guide / Reference

[LobsterOfJustice]

Does anyone have a link or list of the species ID of many of the popular trade names acros in the hobby? I'm not asking for a general identification reference guide, I'm looking for ORA red plant is A. xxxxx, GARF Bonsai is A. xxxxx, Vivid's Insanity is A. xxxxx, etc.

There is no list of fancy pants names of coral. Only Latin names of species.

That is an interesting question; I certainly wish there was such a guide.

There was a regular guy around here that managed systems for WWC and his knowledge of acropora species was encyclopedic. I have all three of the Veron volumes, and his specie ID really checked out. When I remember his username I will update this post.

Just Google Holy Grail Jawbreaker, Pantie Dropper, $$$$$ and all the SPS coral names should show up for you
