I was wondering the same thing Ryan...nice right

 

[lowincwrx]

I just picked this first one up a couple days ago. I thought it had some nice potential. And I'd figure I'd post a pic of my other 2 with it as well (posted them before but they've already changed up some)

I could use some help guys/girls. I purchased this chalice in 07 from a reputable website:

Here's the photo from the website:

Here's the Frag Before Shipping in 07:

Finally, here's a photo from a friend with a good camera:

My problem is I sold a frag from this coral and the guy returned it saying its not a Tyree Goldeneye Chalice. The guy I purchased it from says it is. What are your opinions? Thanks.

The ReefReady Picture on the Bottom is the Tyree GoldenEye I believe...

Sorry Didn't ready through clearly Enough...

 

[orlandobrian]

No problem roktsintst... How about this... are these chalice's:

The same as this chalice:

In your opinion? Does anyone have a LE Tyree Goldeneye (not Aquascene LE Goldeneye, but the Original Tyree Goldeneye) to compare my photos to? Keep in mind, my photos are from a Sony Cyber-shot 7.2 megapixels handheld camera under the tanks 14k mh bulbs.

One last thing... I'm refering to the larger chalice in this picture (the smaller one on top is a Rasta Chalice):

They're the same coral I believe. I don't think Matt sold corals as frauds, he was a little before that became a problem. PM 'Al G Blenny' and ask if he remembers the lineage...

Brian,
I can't see your pictures at the moment, school net blocks them...But Tyree's GoldenEye is the same as the Aquascene Golden Eye. He got the frag from James at the Aquascene store in the Bay area and made it an LE some years ago. He notes all this on his site under the coral. It is now in the retired section I believe. I got my piece directly from James off the mother colony...it looks identicle to the pictures on Tyree's site.

Goldeneye

Goldeneye

This was sold to me as the tyree goldeneye, not sure if it is though. I think it turns more pink under higher lighting. Regardless, I think it is really nice. Is the goldeneye the same as the 4 color chalice? This one also develops a baby blue ring inside of the green rim.

I just put it in my tank today so it is stressed:sad1:

And this is what I like to call my "seedless" watermelon. It prolly has another name though.

No, they are not the same Its too bad "since they came in around the same time" and they look similar, people think and actually market it that way. Maybe Bob can chime in as I have been told by multiple sources of the 4 color that they came from another colony than James' golden eye. I have the 4 color and it is not the goldeneye, its the 4 color.

You picked a nerve as I can not stomach it everytime I see it on websites or on ebay....Ahhhh, I feel better now
