Acid Trip Chalice - Is this for Real?

[AcroporAddict]

Here is a not great point and shoot pic of my Tropicorium Acid Trip and Flame Thrower chalice. The square the Acid Trip is on is 1 1/4" on a side. I've had these for less than a week.

FYI. I was not the one who said they would be gone in a couple years. I was the one saying how long Dick has been doing this and how well known he is in this hobby.

mine comes in tomorrow.....: )

All there stuff seems way over priced to me. DRSFOSTERSMITH has some of those same clams for like half the price.

 

[nismo_32]

i dont know but i gat mine today and was a nice sized frag.... good deal in my book....

I just made the trip down to the Trop to check it out.......its for real.

I couldn't buy any.....but its for real. Wait list for me

correct me if i'm wrong, but the first 4 frags that sold at that $400 price tag were one inche square (at least) but now it's @ 1/2"???

i guess it pays to act fast

Well, for all the skeptics out there, i took the camera out to the trop today.

Here is the Acid Trip mother colony under a 14k blue line metal halide, NO actinics what so ever.

And some really cool nudibranchs, these about 6" long

[FiShTaCo]

Not really sure what they eat.....I have heard they only live about 6 months in captivity.

 

[pwoller]

I think they eat sponges.

 

[roblack]

Probably means they starve to death then. Sweet pics JR! I really like this chalice, smell a trade a-brewin!
