    Ricordea? or Pimpled mushroom?

    Either way, excellent choice, nice colors! ;D

    Yeah- and I actually just talked to a friend I hadn't seen for 4 years or so. Turns out he's big into reefing and has tons of corals he can frag for me... I guess he has 65 gal in town that he's had for 3 years. That'll save some $

    Finding someone to trade with is more fun than anything else, you also get a lot more coral for trade/dollar along with the experience gained from working with the variety. The LFS is fun too but expensive.
