    I am sure a coral 'nut' will be happy to tell you but I know from My
    own experience that many corals are illegal to buy and import and
    sell. The only way I keep up with it is by checking the endangered
    species lists and customs. 

    Coral can be harvested carefully to allow for the smallest impact on
    environment as possible but it still impacts the environment as the
    resources growth state is very very very slow. 

    Everything in life should be in moderation. Therefore , I reserve
    any coral allotment I may have legally purchased to those who love it
    to extreme. I can work in other media and do not believe it is the
    best suited medium for cameos. :)
