This chalice is half grey and half dark red with neon green to yellow eyes and a bright green edge.

Nice chalices Frank! That Oregon mummy eye has really grown.

That red and blue milli is amazing!

I'm glad your corals are doing well Roy. I love that new chalice. I kept a nice chunk for myself also.(plotting)

Galaxy chalice? Anyone have any good name ideas for this one?

Red leg hermits will be in tomorrow. I'll give you a deal on them so you can get a bunch. They should do the trick. -Isaac

I just got this true undata today. I glued it into my tank about an hour ago. It opened right up and looks great.

The orange eyed chalice looks like it might be a mycidium. Is that the one you had some frags of at he NW-CFM?

very nice Roy!,

I especially like the rainbow monti.

I have set up 4 systems with oceans motions 4 ways. Including my own 100 gallon. They work well but are a nightmare to plumb. It's not a perfect science designing a CL. My rock work created some dead spots. I also have dual sea swirls ( which I like better). I also have one Vortech pump which definately helps to elimenate the dead spots. In conclusion, the sea swirls are the best option I have tried but you may still require supplemental flow of some type.

I really like the chilli pepper monti. And all of the others.(nutty)

Let's see those awsome monti photos!

This coral is actual an Acanthastrea Rotundaflora but everyone thinks it's a chalice when they see it.

A customer walks in to your fish store and says " I'd like to buy this mandarin fish and six line wrasse". You say "What size tank do you have?". The customer replies a 20 gallon but I just had a copepod explosion.

Do you:

A: Sell the fish and retire on the $10 you just made. LOL

B: Tell the customer "Sorry I can't sell you the mandarin because its likely they will only eat live food and a 20 gallon cant support enough copepods for long term care of a mandarin".

Plan B is what I chose. This resulted in an angry customer that said they would go to the competitor who would be glad to sell him one for his nano tank. This is crazy. Right?

Looks good Frank! Keep us updated on how it works out.

These frags are really small but are still among my favorite. They are both frags of the original Tyree watermelon alien eye.

Here's a few more.

Post your chalice pictures here.

I didn't make this coral a Limited Edition. ReefFarmers.com made this coral a limited edition. That is Steve Tyree's website.

The coral will only be fraged around once a year. It will also only be sold in small quantity. This coral has a very limited supply and is very rare. Making it "Limited Edition" or "LE" means that if you can obtain a piece you are one of the few who has it.

I've gotten several requests for frags of this coral. Attached is a photo of the mother colony. I have 4 nice frags available all at around the 3/4"+ size. Frags of this coral are $50 and will be kept at an LE status. PM me if you would like to reserve a frag.

My statements are in regard to the way club members communicate with each other. This would include sposors as well as members. The topic is valid. The personal attacks are not!

I feel that buying and selling should be kept on a first come first serve basis. the matter of who is buying and selling is irrelivent. I also feel that this thread has become personal and petty. A moderator should consider removing the thread. This kind of topic is very discouraging to a business that has paid to be a sponsor here. It does nothing for our hobby. If I see much more of this kind of disscussion I may reconsider a sponsorship for next year.

Jay, just wanted to let you know that we have some beautiful anemones in right now. To name a few there is a purple long tentical, green long tentical, rose bubble and green bubble. We currently have calcium reactor media if you need any. We also currently have 3 brands of phosphate media in stock. If there is a specific species of anemone you want we would be glad to track it down for you. Thanks for the feedback.

Thank You

Thank you all! It is rewarding to hear that our hard work is actually making a difference and people are noticing the changes. Hopefully, these are viewed as improvements.

Both of us enjoy the hobby and feel lucky to put our hands around such rare beauty that nature has to offer.

-Our warm thanks,

Isaac and Cheri
