I buy (used to at least and just now starting to again) corals and put them in the tank based on what they look like, not because they have a catchy name attached to it. Has anyone ever walked in your house and said, "wow look at that joe blow tort"; no it's always "look at that cool pink one or purple and green one." I wish the prevailing trend would change, but unfortunately, until more hobbyists get back to growing corals for the pleasure and esthetic appeal, it won't. I also think there are more people out
there that feel this way and do still trade or sell corals for a reasonable price, but those people just don't post as much. I check in here daily and read the informative threads, but only post occasionally.
I totally agree with this. I generally never know what the names are until after I get it home =)
