Here is my Cotton Candy when I got It.

CUDA DO YOU HAVE A RECENT PIC WITH A FLASH OR NO BLUE LIGHTS WANT TO SEE IF IT LOOKS LIKE MINE OR JUST TELL ME WHAT EVER IS EASIER FOR YOU :tongue:

We have bought off of Rich. We are very happy with what we have purchased. We have Cornbreds Bubblegum Monster, Crazes Pink *******,Viper, Ressurection,Hills have Eyes, the Cotton Candy and another one(freebee)but couldnt read the name. Some of the frags are small but ours have grown quickly and they were well packaged. We would purchase from him again. please excuse our pic taking...not the best

Here is a pic of the cotton candy I purchased from him. It is a pretty good grower for me. It prefers low light for best coloration.

cheers,
Darren

Here is a poor picture of cornbred's watermelon when I purchased it....it was hard to get a good picture because it was so tiny, it is in a tough location of my tank to take a picture and my macro lens sucks (sorry for all of the excuses).

cheers,
Darren

should i move mine to a spot with less light yours looks more colorful than mine does? Mine is about 8 in off the bottom of a 75g with t5ho 8x54.

Here's mine when I first got it. Grows at a pretty good clip. Definitely the brightest chalice I have. This pic is under a 150 radium.

^^^ cornbred mummy eye by the way

 

[foxhuntr]

Thats a beauty! We havent purchased one of those from Rich yet but it is on our wishlist. We would love to have more than just one eye since the frags are very small. But I will tell you that Crazes Pink ******, we have only had it a month and its doubled in size and we have another eye. So patience is what we need to have...lol...just so hard

This chalice was sold to me as cotton candy Bought it on ebay around year ago.I think rnegret made a mistake.

Updated shot, 7 weeks later

and my cornbred cotton candy (bad pic but you can tell the colors are pretty true)

 

[westcoastreefer]

anyone have the cotton candy, or any watermelons to comment on, or have pics of.Thanks for all the replies so far.

Here is my cornbred's bgm and cotton candy...eats like crazy, healthy frags. These were bought last year with single eyes

 

[fiddly_foo]

I'm friends with rich he's a great guy and everything he sell's is good and a great shipper. Have alot of his stuff , getting the cornbread watermelon and something else early next week. Have cornbreads hybrid thats nice ron burgandy grows fast and looks really good for a little cheaper just a few but deal with him and you cant go wrong ....

 

[alien_frag_farm]

i have about 20 of R Negret's chalices. all of them retained their colors.

 

[reeffanatic]

I have a bunch of rnegret's chalices and they are awesome!!

 

[fab1971]

Same here. I just bought Rnegret's cornbred trash mummy eye, pink ******* and sobe miami and they look fantastic. The mummy eye is the brightest chalice in my tank and the ******* is starting to color up very nicely. I definitely recommend him!

i find it pretty sad that he sells his own chalices as LE and Tyree, but when you ask him for lineage he reveals that they do not have lineage, but "look very similar"

in my opinion, hes just out to make a quick buck; but again.. just my opinion :squigglemouth:

 

[droblack]

I wish Rich frequented these forums because he could share a lot of knowledge and surely some sweet pics. He has an incredible chalice collection and is a good person to do business with. Different corals, he has some true gems. Gonna have to take a drive up north again and do a trade sometime soon, otherwise gonna drop a few bills and my boss won't like that.

I have his cornbred watermelon. I asked him about lineage and he told me its similar to Monster Mash but was a colony he obtained from a shipment. I also have MM and his cornbred wm is comparable for sure, although both of my frags are small.

I also have his cornbred ME and its definitely the brightest ME in my tank, I also have the Oregon, Original, and Mengs. Mengs is a close second in terms of brightness.

His stuff is very nice for sure and imo he is running a stand up business. The frags I got from him were pretty small to tiny but in his defense he does usually provide photos of the frags you are bidding for and he did include a free chalice frag with my first order.

unlike all u guys...I live down the street from him. Well a couple streets, but like 2 or 3 miles away. I wish he would come on here to post pictures of his setup. It's an amazing setup and he grows chalice's like it's nothing. Everyone always comes to my house and is amazing with the amount of coral I have, but then I go to his house and my jaw hits the floor!
