"challice" pics...lets see em!

[neyugn0w01]

Alicia- I picked it up at a local store. They had another piece that was slightly larger that was not for sale. I was glad to pick this one up.

Greg- I swear your "inverted watermelon eye" looks just like my piece. I just need to take a better picture.

I got that frag from tacocat. It's definitly one of my favorites. BTW, tacocat has now named that piece the "Mummy Eye." Here is a pic of his original colony.

Do you happen to have a Pic of Pumkinpatch/Miami Hurricane from any diffrent angles? i guess i will have to post a pic of mine when it arrives on Friday

[gcarroll]

That was the only pic I have of it. I have made a few changes to the lighting in the tank and duting this time the tank has been getting minimal light. Once things color back up I will once again be inspired to break out the camera for some top down pics.

That picture looks more like it. 'Mummy Eye"? That is interesting.

first time posting in the lps forum but here is my bazooka joe...

[gcarroll]

tfp - does that piece grow quickly. I just got a frag from YourReef. I can't wait til mine grows up.

[brianbigoats]

looks good Tim

[tfp]

greg, i only have one other chalice to compare its growth to but i'd say its a medium paced grower. the coral itself is a brighter pink but i couldn't capture the angle .

[Marko9]

Tim- Looks good. Glad to see you over here in the LPS as well.

[KEEPERZ]

good to see a larger bazooka joe -TFP- they do pop a pretty bright pink

[Mikigo]

Keeperz
Where do you place your bazooka? High, low, mid? Great color.

[KEEPERZ]

I would call it low to mid on a 32" tall tank under 400w 12k's-thank you by the way

Here is another pic of my Pumpkin Patch chalice. The orange eyes are the brightest flourescent orange you can imagine!

[brianbigoats]

Looks Good Greg mine has some super orange eyes base color is faded right now i hope it looks a sweet as yours

You and Eric need to iron out the name or maybe we should combine them how about the Pumkin Hurricane or Miami Patch

[wishntoboutside]

my vote is for pumkin patch=)

[d4a2n0k]

Figured Id post my new addition. Got this from Live Aquarias aquacultured section.

[slojmn]

I like Pumpkin Patch as well, seems most appropriate but, as Brian pointed out to me, there are a few "Pumpkin" names already out there...very few sports names. Still, I vote for Pumpkin Patch. Super nice picture Greg.

d4a2n0k, Nice frag. Live Aquaria has that strawberry one I have always liked as well. Nice big, healthy frags from Live Aquaria. Good score .

[d4a2n0k]

slojmn-Thanks. Live Aquarias frags do cost more than others but you get the 30 day guarantee and their frags are bullet proof, they can take a beating. I have a number of SPS frags from them and theyve been through hell these past few months with algae growing all over them. Ive been having some problems.....

This was labeled as a Watermelon Chalice which it obviously isnt.

[JPagliai]

I just purchased one of these at my LFS. I'm not sure where to place it in my tank to get the best color. It's a bit dull looking right now...looks kinda like a cup coral. My light fixture has 2-150W halides and 2-96W PC Atinics. The tank is 21" deep. Some sites recommend to place it at the bottom of a tank with halides and others recommend high light. What do those of you with one of these corals recommend?

[Marko9]

Here is my new rastafari


And an updated Joe

[tfp]

and where's jayda?

[Hypertek99]

I have a piece that's on a square rock and it's covered up the whole rock do i just let it be or should i put another rock under it???

I picked this up about 3 weeks ago. Still trying to get a good shot of it.
