i can say one thing, it is deff not as beautiful as a LIVE corral btw youve got a point, coral are living things too

 

[Darkness9876]

Too many people view coral as a plant and not a living breathing creature. Should be stopped!

It is a crime, all of the shells and corals you see now are man made, there is a company here in Brownsville that maufactures all the corals and shell you can buy.

If that picture is not in the US they may be real corals, if not they are man made.........a shame people jump to conclusions in their mission of mercy.

You working for the government yet?

Harvesting live or dead coral in the US is a crime. However, it they are captive raised coral, it's legal to bleach them and sell them.

Outside the US, there aren't many laws to protect them.

They are better live. That is a shame.
