Well, now I don't know what's more impressive...the coral, or your success at growing it! Nice job!

Nice shots. I got two questions for you.

Where in Houston are you? I'm up 290 at Barker Cypress.

Do you ever sell frags?

Oranji is doing fine, it's just been growing extremely slow grower in my tank.

I live in South Hampton, near the museum district. And yes, I sell frags all the time on Marsh.

Nice, James! I also have maroon and red coralline.

Also, the spelling is Orenji Danae (must be spoken with Toshiro Mifune-like authority)
