    I was shopping online and saw a frag marked as ORA ... what does that mean? I am thinking of getting my first SPS frag... so I've just started shopping.

    TANGSTER hit it on the nose! You will notice that many corals and Tridacna's are ORA, which is a good thing... You will find that many of these are better equipt to survive and thrive, more so than wild specimens of the same kind!!!

    Yeah those prices seem reasonable. I payed $30 for a ORA chips that looked pretty much like the one offered. Big encrusted tank raised frags are worth the money.
