    They actually don't carry any of them. I realize they are on the site, but if you order them, they just end up refunding your money saying they are out of stock. Was in there yesterday:p

    Unfortunately, ORA is a wholesaler, and without me opening an account with them and doing a minimum $500 livestock order I can't order direct.

    JoeKnowsReefs had some nice pieces last week. You should try contacting him about the rest on your list.

    I have ORA hawkins and I had blue iris until a snail knocked it off the frag rack and the pistol shrimp stole it. I would rip them right off the ORA plug the minute you get them. Once they encrust its over. Plus it seems like theres always weird stuff that gets trapped underneath them in the plug that may harm the coral but I'm not sure. I always remove them right away because they don't fit well in my frag rack which is a standard one.

    Cool. Yah I ended up band sawing off the existing ORA pieces I have, the plugs are so freaking bulky. Thanks for the reply!
