I have the Mother Of Pearl Acro, can't get a good pic of it though 
I didn't know it was a plating coral when I got it. I mounted the frag all the way at the front of my tank, the front side of the coral dosn't get enough light, so it pretty much dosn't plate that direction. The back side of the coral does get the light though, so it is plating back into the tank It took a reallyto long time to get started doing good in the tank, and I don't want it move it now, it might slow the coral down now that it is taking off, or I could kill it. Its a very nice coral that I just might not be able to get another frag of. As it grows I will be able to get better pics of it, now, about the only good shot of it i could get, would be top down, but its still kinda small. I am going to have to move some very nice corals out of it way to let it plate back into the tank, which I will do 
I got a lesson though, know what you are buying and how it grows before you mount it.

Wow you have the Mother of Pearl, that is awesome. I used to love the image they had of if on their site. I have not heard anyone mention Wet Thumbs in years.

Ditto here; not quite the same for me, but it certainly doesn't look like their famous avatar pic in my tank.
hey, I was wondering if you had anymore info on this... I miss Dan and Tina, would love to somehow reconnect with him.

Honestly I have looked at so many swap things I have no idea where I saw it. I'll ask Dirk next time I talk to him, since he is at every swap he'd know

Yes he does. I got a frag of mop from him recently and it looks amazing
