Mine went from 5-7 eyes to about 70 in one year. Then I cut it in half and sold multiple 5+ eye frags.

Once it gets settled in it will should grow very well.

Thanks, it is the only chalice I have seen with a dark blue base and pink "bubbles/upper tissue"(I do not know what those are scientifically called)

Awesome man!!! Love it!

Nice growth....I'm digging the look of all of those chalices over-growing each other.....kind of the counter to a acropora dominated tank.

I'm sort of ignoring the inevitable problem it's going to become...

I feel a bit guilty about that. What's interesting is that it constantly manages to stay ahead of the PB. The original MH frag was somewhere in the bottom center on that pic, not over to the left like it is now. So it's actually running away LOL.

This is why I love chalices.
Those look incredible!

Thanks! Here's a shot of my moster mash... slower grower, but still looking nice. The unidentified solid hot pink chalice on the floor of the tank is actually brighter than the ******* *gasp*

Man I love those blue and red stripes. Lmk if you ever want to cut yours in half.

SDguy · Dec 16, 2011

Thanks... it's interesting. Originally it just had the splashes of turquoise around the center. The stripes, especially those going our to the edge, have developed more over time...
