I received my convict chalice "frag" yesterday from the guys at ARC and when I opened the box I almost passed out. This was not a frag, it was a mini colony!! I would have never imagined that anybody would have cut a piece of the convict chalice so big!! After seeing many boogers of this chalice cut for $500 over the years it was such a pleasure to see such a large, beautiful, healthy piece of this amazing chalice.

Thank you so much for a great deal on this incredible chalice!!!

Not the best pic, still stressed from shipping, but you get the idea, for reference the frag was remounted on a 2" disc.

The original colony was sold on RC and looked nothing like what we see today. The colony was sold to Pony for around 2k and it morphed for him to what we know as the convect today. From Pnoy it got spread around.
