I enjoy Porites. In fact they are the dominate species in my tank. I was wondering why I've not been able to find any of the encrusting varieties? Is it totally due to them being protected?
Pics please. Please

The Darth Maul Porites is easy to get and hands down the most pure red Sps coral I've ever seen.

Purple Porites is also available in aquaculture circles. The one with the white polyps is the nicest.

Sand Dollar grows very fast and is common
