Definitely worth a read! That’s amazing that chalice came from an OME. I wouldn’t have believed it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely worth a read! Good article, and fun to have a personal reference. I've got a frag of OME I got in 2019 from @Flash21 I'm nursing back to health, after I almost lost the total colony last year (all my fault). Get's direct feeding of reef-roids twice a week and loves it. I'd nocked it down to the a single mouth, total size ~1/8". Amazing how much they grow. Beautiful coral, hooked my wife the first time she saw it in a shop. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash21 Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 I believe I had a stain-glass chalice about 2+years ago. I had a slight crash and one of many things that died. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youcallmenny Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 My original OME I got maybe ~4 years ago has been fragged up, scraped off rocks, burned by tank problems. It's currently 6" across and growing fast lol. One of my absolute favorites! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m looking to add this classic to my collection. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Oregon Mummy Eye is naturally a very metallic green with orange to pink eyes. Like candy paint on a classic car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isaac Posted March 23, 2022 Author Share Posted March 23, 2022 This is a photo I took of my coral sometime between 2006-2009. I took this photo for Steve Tyree by request. He was very excited about the coral when I described it to him. D72D1538-777A-420E-9166-785136BB07CC.webp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
