Does anyone know of someone that can ship to Canada. I'm looking for ORA Blue Cespitularia, next to imposable to track down this variety anywhere.

Good luck. There is someone local to me (GTA area) selling blue kenya tree as this, so be aware. I can tell you where to find blue cespitularia though (just recently acquired some), i'm not sure if it truly 'sparkles' as I have never seen the ORA variant in person to compare the two. Regular blue cespitularia is still jaw dropping. Here is mine

They don't ship aqua cultured corals to Canada.

I think they do if shipped via an airline

I have never seen aquacultured ORA corals for sale in Canada, but I could be mistaken. The only way they end up here is if someone illegally(?) carries them over the border.

I hope you are wrong on this.

You had mentioned that you just acquired some, willing to share where you got it from?
