Ross,

As far as I know, dead corals have little or no commercial value. It is dull,
drab, broken and looks like what it is, something that was living and is now
dead. Great place for our friends to hide during the day. I know they have
stopped harvesting coral in the Philippines (or so I've been told) in the
last year or so. Live coral reef, with their abundant life all around, is
truly one of the beauties of nature. Lets hope we smarten up and leave it in
tack.
