    Australian acanthastrea on ebay legal?

    It is only recently that Australia has allowed export of certain corals and volume is controlled. Our laws are so strict when it comes to native flora and fauna that fines etc are more than for some criminal acts. Mind you since exports have been allowed we are not able to import corals from...

    Pics From Sunny WA (Western Australia)
