Watermelon Chalice

Hypertek99 · Dec 14, 2007

Where is your watermelon chalice placed??? Flow and light please. I see a tear in the tissue i don't want it to spread i think it doesn't like where it's at. I looked at it tonight and it seems better the tissue looks more puffed. I might try moving it to a lower light i think that's what made it more puffed looking.

all of my chalices are in the sand bed away from direct light, with low to moderate flow.

Congrats on the watermelon. Did you get it from UA?

Same here. After spending more $$$ than on any other piece, I wasn't gonna argue w/the gal. She sad, "Put it low", about 3x. So low it is. Finally starting to get a green ring around it. Brighter pink & green than any I've ever seen. About 1/2 size of a quarter now.

Well just snapped this for you guys. It's actually a lot better now that i moved it under a shade. I think it's going to be alright.

It's kinda hard to see in the pic but you can see the white spot

Doesn't look very pink. Can't you get a shot w/o actinics?

Hypertek99 · Jan 3, 2008

It's pink and purple. No actinics here. Just 250MH 20K

it looks pink to me, his white balance is just a little off.

surfn · Jan 3, 2008

revhtree · Jan 3, 2008

Its the new LE TYREE LIMITED UBER AUSSUIE MEXI BALI MARICULTURE ORA MICRO MEGA CHALICE!!!!!

Sorry got a bit carried away there.

I got a alien eye chalice frag from UA and I have it at the top in a shaded corner on a frag rack. My stupid crabs were crawling across it and thought that was ticking it off. Do all chalicees require shaded or lower lighting and being in the sand?
