Coral Search Engine Gone?

Has anyone else noticed the coral search from Australia Institute of Marine Science's website is gone? Or at least moved? I can't seem to access it:

 

AIMS Coral Search

 

Too bad - this was always a great taxonomic tool for stony coral references... :sad:

Let's build a new one!

 

I built a wiki style dictionary for a rifle association, it was quick and painless, we could easily do the same. Allow users to attach their own photos of the pieces, include recommends params, lighting, flow, tank mates.

 

Lets do this!

I think this interfered with Veron's books sales?

 

I doubt we could come close the the volume of research and ID of that site. It was more or less this book set online:

Yeah, we have that set at work, and it is indeed the gold standard for stony corals. I often wondered why people would buy the set when they had access to it online, for free...

 

Looks like someone finally figured that one out...

 

Bummer too; it was so convenient.
