Your best bet is to form a group or clubs with other local people in the area and do frag swaps, and exchange the corals that you can propigate yourselves. The hope for the marine aquarium industry is the becoming self-reliant. Sooner or later importation of corals and fish will end not just in Malta but everywhere. The freshwater aquarium industry imports less than 10% of it live stock from the wild according to Anthony Calfo's book. The marine industry and aquarist need to follow suite.
