Yeah, but the problem is that the CDHC thought they were going to a "research facility." Obviously, they were a bit irked when they found out they had gone to a commercial wholesaler's warehouse where Indo pacifics were also constantly coming and going. Among other reasons, corals from different parts of the world need to be kept in different, separated rooms when you're doing research (and especially if there's any plan to ever return propagated coral back to the wild). This is what Mote Marine and other actual research facilities have to do. The space was not rented either. RS apparently did this out of the goodness of their hearts... or possibly upon the promise/anticipation of funding from somewhere (I don't know for sure, the documents don't say specifically-- though there is mention of when Eric proposed possible future sale of frags to researchers).
