I never understand why vivid is always left out. Reef raft and sps coral store are wonderful. But if you want colored up frags, literally no one has the amount, variety and colors of vivid. It's a no brainer, why would you want a brown "named" frag when you can choose a colored up named or no-namer that sparkles. And I understand the prices that vivid charges for its premium stock but I would rather pay 40-90 bucks for a colored frag. All three stores have lots of incredible beauties and they all have a range of pricing. My personal favorites are all three and no one can beat the prices of the sps coral store for named pieces. Reef raft has some of the most unusual corals anywhere
There are so many great stores in southern cal. I have never been to sexy corals but I hear great things about it--I am going to make a point of going out there I have found countless gems by stopping in lots of different coral stores like coral collection and coral gazers. It's a long list and I feel bad for not knowing or mentioning some of the other great stores out there
