Great! Can't wait to see. Jason since you are face to face with these corals in the wild... are we bringing out colors in our reef that are not seen in the wild? More so speaking of chalices.

Some pics for you guys! More crazy diving, fresh coconuts, sleeping on the little boat in the middle of the ocean. Some crazy dives down to over 130ft and 20min deco times!!! Sometimes I scare myself. LOL Took a 18hr boat ride for more crazy corals.

I hope you provide something back to the reef, seems to be alot of coral.

I would say in the grand scheme of things the selection and collection process that Jason is doing here has far less impacts on the reefs than typical methods. He is collecting what he wants and making sure to leave enough so his impact is minimal.

Hey Jason, I know you keep the location secret, but can you at least tell us what island you are close to?
Last time I talke to you we talked about Irian Jaya and Ambon
yes I think I remember you are from indo. You told me you were diving those islands a few months ago. I just look at a map to see the 2 islands you were talking about. I have never been to Ambon or irian jaya. Are they nice dive spots? I am only diving areas that allow legal coral collecting. And the spots I dive are secret that I will not tell anyone about the location .

Sorry for not posting lately. I have been doing some insane diving and living in the most hardcore conditions ever on remote islands living 100% indo style. I have found some of the nastiest corals never seen in this hobby before! I have spent over 24 hours under water so far this trip. I only have wifi for a few minutes and than more travel ! Get ready everyone!!! You will be blown away when you see these coral!!!! I will post again ASAP '
