A fellow reefer sent me the following pictures and stated that the frag is a BPC Flamethrower.

I am asking the R2R community to chime in and let me know if you confirm that the frag is the BPC Flamethrower chalice or not.

The pics are blue which makes it difficult to tell. If I had to guess from those Pics I would say yes.
It has the gold / yellow rim and the blue streaks in it...
 
Doesn't look like flamethrower in my opinion, something about the way the blue is. But could be I guess
 
I am going to say its not. You can see where the streaks go into the rim, it changes color (green?). This is not indicative of the BPC as the rim stays a solid orange when the streaks flow into it. HTH... Agree more what with Richie is thinking...
 
Either the flame thrower or negrets atomic bomb

RichieT, yes when I first saw the picture, I immediately thought about the Atomic Bomb...Good call on that one.


Whatever it is it sure is sexy!

Zack, yes it sure is sexy, but if I am paying the requested amount, I want to make sure that I am purchasing a chalice that I am specifically looking for.


I had a CB Atomic.. Mine didnt have any sign of blue in it..

Paul C, how long have you had the CB Atomic chalice? Maybe your piece needs a little more time for the blue coloration to appear?

Darren, I requested the reefer to send me pictures without any actinic lighting so I can getting a better look at the chalice.


I only mentioned it because the piece I have in a grow out from negret has it.

RichieT thanks for the picture. Your frag looks exactly like the 2 pictures I posted.

Yes, the blue in the rim got my attention when I first saw the pictures.

I will need to see additional pictures without any actinic lighting.

Yes, the only streaks I am familar with are the greyish stirations around the eye and no blue coloration in the rim.

I believe the piece your referencing is from Richie's picture he provided and not Westly's.

The OP's photo of the chalice looks to me like the real deal.

I hope it all goes well with your search for a BPC Bud
 
That's not a flamethrower in my opinion with green in the rim, missed it the first time...lol

The quest for this BPC Flamethrower is never ending.

I might have better luck finding the Holy Grail or Noah's Ark.
 
Here is a top down shot the reefer sent to me.

Just looking at the top down view, does this look more like a BPC Flamethrower or Atomic Bomb?

The texture on the surface looks a lot smoother than the BPC Flamethrower frags I am used to seeing.

Without a doubt not BPC. Without lineage impossible to say its an atomic bomb. Could be any one of the many rainbow type chalices that are floating around now...

Thanks for your response Dnov99.

Wesley - I sent you the picture of the BPC i Purchased From Sexy Corals. I sent you the peice it morphed into after I fragged it and placing it in LED's . I also explained that to you. I did not in anyway try to mislead you. Everyone on here who knows me knows I am a collector and have it all. Remember you contacted me questioning a sponser of R2R.

Mike- In 2010 did you sell me a BPC or was it fake? I doubt it was fake.

With this said, You dont want the piece then dont by it. My bad it morphed or Mikes bad for sell me a fake.
 
Yes if this is the piece you got from me in 2010 then it's 110% the bpc ft. Lineage is I got about 10 bpc frags from coralfarmer123 back then and it was one of them. The proof is also back in 2010 there was no other chalice out there even looking close to the bpc ft. All these rainbow or yellow rim pieces came in at the beginning of 2012 and here is the first ever release of the dynamite back then.

So that's the lineage and proof on my end.
