Well I know the guy who had the "original" Darth Maul chalice, not his name btw.. Matt @ Reefready gave it that name IIRC. That being said, I wouldnt hold your breath waiting. Of course you might see a few pop up in stores just because they have a similar dark (whatever w/ red look to them.

The one on Matt's site is vary dark base with bright red surface but as you know sometimes pictures are not true to color.I saw one that has a bright red surface but not so black base.Did you guys see it in person?If so is the picture true to color ?also think it will hold its coloration?

Heheh... Black Chalice... Bloody Reef Rash Chalice... Darth Maul Chalice

Suppose to stay black in lower light. Can lighten up in brighter light.

Didn't the original owner collect that one himself?

If you read every BAR post from 2007, you can figure out who it is

Go to reefready.net and look at the picture its dead on. As to the guy, yeah he won't be fragging it since it is a slow grower and he needs to wait for it to grow out before doing anything. I'm always teasing him about when can I get a frag, and he gives me this look "Uggh not you too" so be kind, and don't bug the guy if you figure out who it is.

Of course Matt is not a B.S. artist..... There are pieces in circulation, be patient and you will get yours. I'll post a little bit more about it later, off to work.

You guys can't be serious about the Darth Maul piece. The name is very cool however.
