[143gadgets]

Can trade or buy.

 

[MikeB]

Picture. I have never heard of that.

 

[nellahtes]

contact matt... thats where mine came from.

 

[bushh23]

^^^^^^Me too! Dont know if he has anymore but if you snip the Miami ill snip the Jaba!

Browns its my avatar and i put a pic of my piece in the chalice thread. Matt used to have it on his website as a full colony but since he re-did the site hes taken it down.

 

[143gadgets]

COol. I'll send u a nice chuck of my Miami Hurricane.

 

[Fish n' Frags]

Chris, it will be a bit before mines ready to frag again.

 

[Sikryd]

Yeah I am letting mine grow out till winter. Its got 2 eyes, working on a 3rd now - :xd:

 

[oceanparadise1]

Wow! That's a sick piece! What's it go for per inch?

 

[MikeB]

i want a frag also.

A lot! Not like My Miami but you usually can only buy it in a pack and the prices for the packs can be high since it isnt out there much yet!

 

[ddr_phish]

Yea, that beauty is on my wish list now too. Truly amazing coloration. Anyone got a colony shot?

 

[oceanparadise1]

Plus one on the colony shot! Some one has to have one?!

Yeah that was a bumber and a blessing - cost me $1200 - but it got me to get a couple pieces like this one, that I might have passed on due to the initial cost.

Fish N Frags Jabawaki colony shot taken from a thread posted back in March of this year..these are Matt's pictures from Fish N Frags

That's nice. It looks like frags have developed a more defined rim than the colony.

Yup! Cost me the same and we probably got the same pack! Im glad though that i did it as it helped me get 3 pieces i was chasing for a long time and Matt always sells top quality stuff with excellent shipping and customer service.

I'm just happy that I get to fragsit one while my buddy gets his tank setup. I drool over it every day:dribble:

 

[MikeB]

Definitly not inpressed over the colony picture. The frag looks better than the colony. Could have something to do with lighting and water quality too. What do you guys think?

 

[dieselab]

On a small frag the rim to body ratio is about 1:1 or 1:1.5 at most. That's why it looks so much better as a frag. It's still a nice piece however.

+1

This goes for a lot of frags vs. colonies. Whether it be Sps, LPS or whatever.
I have seen some pretty crappy looking frags, that are stunners as colonies, and viceversa
It'll be a while before mine reaches the 5-6" mark though

I think with this piece though, we really won't know till these frags grow out since the colony wasn't in captivity for a couple years or anything.

If I have seen anything with chalices it is that they really have to be in captivity for a couple years, to stabilize and you actually know what you are getting.
