    yeah sadly often times you can not tell the true coloration of the corals until they have been in your tank for a while! It is VERY stressful on the corals when they ship. We bought a big order from wet thumb frags that shipped in the mid of Feb and they are just now coloring up nicely!

    I do business on a weekly basis with ORA. That website is not accurate in coloring.

    I dont believe there is a color issue. When I read ORAs description of the coral they describe it as bluesh green with blue tips. And that what it looks like, and as sous stated has a variation between the two. I dont if liveaquaria photoshops although I will admit they do have color exageration in alot of there photos.
