So over a year ago i bought a chalice frag from ARC. I paid $40 for it, it was just a little frag maybe 1/4"x1/4 on the large side with no eyes, basically just a bright pink speck on a frag disk.
Now it has 15+ eyes and is 3"x2" give or take and ive been trying to figure out what chalice it is, since i know ARC carries "Brand Name" stuff.
It is BRIGHT pink with a light purple-ish rim and the eyes are the same light purple-ish color. It looks very much like the "pink Boobies" but with out the colorful mouths. I have it under t'5s about 2ft under a 4 bulb tek unit.
Any ideas on what chalice it is?
thanks
 
oops, here is the pic of it :-) I meant to post this up their but got excited i guess!!

on a side note, i do not have any plans on cutting this thing up, I want it to get to be a huge chalice!!!
I want all my chalices to get huge. I used to love seeing the Tyree Watermelon at TRS (but im glad they cut that up since i bought a piece when they did!!) and i want mine to get big like that!
 
Agree not PB's ,and looks like a tyree red watermelon?

Reread your description,and if its bright pink that doesn't fit the red watermelon either.Im not sure but its nice nonetheless whatever itis.
 
thanks and lol i like the new name :-)
I love it, it stands out very good especially with the size its getting. It seems like i can watch this thing grow now that it is bigger, it took forever for the one eye to form, then the next and so on.
 
I had one very similar to your piece, I got it from Kien. I lost it during a move. But it doesn't matter what the name of it is as long as YOU like it!
 
thanks!! Its hard to get it true color on camera.
I think the red watermelon is more red then pink thats the only reason im not sure about that.
 
and all the watermelons i see have a green rim and colorfull eyes. These eyes are the light purple with pink spots in them, and the rim is the light purple color also. Cant find another like it.
 
Ive got a few different pink chalices and from what Ive seen the eyes will change color depending on lighting though Ive also seen the body color alter a bit in another tank whitch I think was more related to water.
