Where can I find ORA aquacultured corals? I know of LiveAquaria and have had success purchasing from them…….Are there any other sites that you may have had success dealing with?

ORA is only shipping Tonga and Marshall Island maricultured frags. They plan on selling their own corals in the next 3-6 months.

Rob, is this due to the hurricanes they got hit by?

Not sure. They got off pretty easy last year.

ORA has begun shipping out their frags in small numbers. They say the hurricanes are the cause for the problems.

They have been rebuilding their coral systems for the last few months.

Initally it was the hurricane, then some bleaching last spring and later they had some issues with using natural seawater and desalination. They are working through it and hopefully will be back up and running again soon.

On another note...Hello Rob, hope all is well with the frogspawn. Keep in touch.:)

Thanx. I was wondering why I had been finding it difficult to find ORA stonies. A ways back, LiveAquaria stocked them, where I was able to pick up a few montiporas, but since then, things seemed to dry up.

Well, I guess I will look for other types of aquacultured corals.

How are you Scott? I haven't checked your site in awhile. Going to it now!

Things are going well. Send me an email if you get a chance. I have a question for you about livestock.

I got a few ORA frags from MACNA 05 and they are doing great.
Can't wait to see more available.
