Reefer14,

What species of coral are to referring to? My Green Tree (Nepthea sp.) does not seem endangered and I have yet to be arrested for fragging it:D

I would also like to know what species, as i have been collecting electric green corals and I have several "trees". Gee, i was just thinking about making Nepthea and Sinularia frags too, but I sure don't want to get collared by the Frag Bureau of Investigation (FBI) :D

Hmmm, a common name like African Green Tree Coral could be referring to any number of species. IME, when most people mention green tree corals they are referring to either Nepthea or Sinularia species.
