If this is the same green pocilopora that we got from you, we are thinking it is actually a birdsnest coral?
Mark & Peter
Yes. There are two different coral that are popular as birds nest, green pociliopora damicornis, and the pink tip seriatopora.

Almost. Seriatopora is "birdsnest". Several colors exist including green. Poccilopora damicornis is different.

Seriatopora is in the Family Pocilloporidae. So same family as Pocillopora at least.

@Mark B @Coral reefer I am under the assmption that the left one is pociliopora damicornis. I am rethinking now, and going through the reef.com article again, probably you are correct, this is S. caliendrum

I see a top and a bottom. Neon green seriatopora (could be caliendrum) on top. Green poccilopora damiconis on bottom.

Just do two PayPal transactions. If you want to be more specific you can put in the notes section the specific name of who it goes to. As far as labeling you can just use the same user name. It's mostly just so the recipient can contact you if they have questions.

I just asked Kim P. if she could pass along the swap info to NVR. From looking around I don't really see alot of excitement or posting about the swap. I hope we get a good amount of people show up. Maybe bump some posts? :rolleyes:

We need more info on Raffle prizes. I'm offering up a frag of The Vinh but it doesn't look like it is drawing much attention. Maybe a frag of something else? I'll see if I can frag an eye off my other CB chalice.

Maybe a frag of WD?

We AtLeast got the word out to a lot of people at the coral farmers market.
Maybe @Corallus can post a couple of raffle items?
