I'll have to look back at the shots I have of his collections, I don't recall seeing it, but I don't think I knew what it was back then either :bigsmile:

As for the jabawaki, has anyone tried changing the amount of light to get the blue/purple color darker?

I've tried around 10 places in my tank.

I know he had it because I remember seeing it when he sold off his personal collection in a thread

Ugh, my eye hurts from winking so much! :snicker:

I wonder if higher nutrients in the water would help?

That is always a option that not many think about due to people try to go uln as possable. I doubt that is it though knowing he had that many rare chalices thought.

My tank used to be at 20ppm and .09 respectively for quite some time I think it just has to do with it being a recent import when it hit the market, but who really knows.

Well, of course one can't say for certain, since there's no telling what the importation process did to the color. But, I have seen some ULN systems and the chalices were pale, so it was just a thought

I concur with you, although i have seen the frags and they do look sweeter then the colony i think.

 

[nayrgaijin]

+1 on frags looking sweeter!

Not mine!

 

[SDguy]

Frags always look great when the contrasting rim is >30% of the total surface area of the coral :nerd:

Did that come from Craig? Craig got it from aquatic collection? If so its the same as the strawberry watermelon from reef ready.

Pics?

 

[fab1971]

Now that frag is sweet! Definitely looks nicer then the colony pics.

I was also one of the lucky ones to get a frag of the jaba from Matt. I almost lost it due to some tank issues. It is a slow grower. I don't see fragging it anytime in the near future. Shame to hear the mother colony was lost.

Can you share a picture?:tongue:

Can you share a picture?:tongue:

I'd be happy to. But what I was able to save is so small. I was glad I was able to save some though.

 

[Znut Reefer]

Theres got to be more frags of it out there???
