This is exciting.
I feel like this is the pinnacle challenge in our hobby and I look forward to when we have enough understanding and techniques to do this at a hobby level.

Goniopora sexual propagation, or just sexual propagation? IMO reef building corals and LPS sexual propagation is the future.

The YouTube channel “Parkers Reef” has a great video interviewing a company in Australia which is working to reliably sexually reproduce Scollys. Worth a watch.

Yeesh, 12 to 36 months to reach saleable size If they have good survival rates and can do this at scale, this is the way!

There have been so much advancement on sexual reproduction. I hope this is the future of our hobby. I was blown away by the elegance and scoly breeding. I really want to try it myself.

I really hope we get to a point where the only corals our hobby is taking from the ocean are the ranchers gathering brood stock colonies.
