    So after spending like a month trying to figure out what this coral is I have finally come to the conclusion that it must be a bright yellow frogspawn. I have found nothing like it in my research but after talking to some people and the two LFS that it must be yellow frogspawn. Now I am curious as to what a head of it is worth. I have a cluster of almost a dozen heads. I have a feeling it is very rare as eveyone I asked about it has offered me money for a head.
    Is there yellow frogspawn?
    Any suggestions to how to frag the heads and what they are worth?
    I have crapy picts but cannt up load them. I will use my other camera and get some photos.

    Where are you located? If your in the Des Moines area I could help you frag it up. If not I bet someone else in the club could help you out.

    I think nick has it.

    Although you can get a decent colony for $100 now.

    Where'd you get it? What was it sold as? What's your lighting and the corals placement in the tank?

    sorry having problems w/ my comp and the picts. i followed the link above and it looks nothing like it. A friend (worked at LFS) gave 2 colonies of it to my mom. She has one and I have one. Both sit under t-5s at the top of our tanks

    when you go to the website craig posted look under lps then euphyllia. that place normally has rarer frogspawn, torch and hammer make sure it isnt something they may have there.
