FYI. The original colony that rev posted was split into 3. One came to the states, one went to Europe and the last stayed in Indo.
Trust me when I say that basically none have melted!
I was about to post the same info-I visited Golden Basket today and spoke with Rudy, he shared the story that's posted above. They are not melters, I have one now I my tank that I am growing for another reefer (see post #53) Its growing well in about 120 par and producing a new baby-

But Joe did mention a big part of the original colony was melted away....so confusing.

That one in Singapore definitely is the real deal...
From what I know, that poly grew super fast and the owner fragged and share with couple guys. All melted at the same time.

I guess since most of the colony melted and only a " COUPLE " folks have them, we must not have anymore in the wild ( ocean ) which covers 3/4ths of the world. I guess there's no more chance of ever getting these from the wild again as wild colonies:angel: Just sayin

The ocean only makes 50 krakatoas every 500 years. I want one so bad. Duke hook me up!
