Looks like one to meI have had 3 different sources I received “ORA Pearlberry” from. 2 of them for sure were fakes. The latest one I think is real, but I’m not sure.
Actually have another one coming in from aquavist99 which I have high confidence in.
This is the my latest one. Tell me what you think guys:

It looks pretty good. Very hard to tell from a frag. Colors are pretty good but what it will grow out to be is hard to say with a pic of the mother colony. Ask for a pic
I know that this is terrible, but this is the only photo that I have of mine. It is right under a halide and very difficult to photograph from the top-down... so this photo sucks, but does show the normal "tabling" growth form.
This is not my photo, but this is what it should look like close up. The aqua-blue color in the middle can get really intense under high light... but this is a good photo.

The ones in photos without the smooth branches worry me.

I believe harry' s frags have true Ora pearlberryI have had 3 different sources I received “ORA Pearlberry” from. 2 of them for sure were fakes. The latest one I think is real, but I’m not sure.

Photos aside, make sure that your tank is mature and doing well. This is not an easy coral... at any price.

what should my alk levels be at?
There is a certain hobbyist selling a large batch of SPS on forums he acquired from me many years ago as frags and grew out. He liberally applied names to many of them and many are not authentic ORA, Tyree, etc. pieces and I never sold them as such. This looks like one of those pieces, and I have seen them offered a few steps removed from him, I assume from unwitting buyers selling what they thought they bought.

This was mine in a previous tank. In my current tank, I have a frag from that colony that is not nearly as pretty, but slowly getting there.
