I am so excited. I finally received my Flamethrower chalice from Coralfarm123.

I am so impressed with the packaging and care of the frags. Also, to my surprise, Ian included a bonus leptastrea frag.

Below are just a few pictures when I picked up the box from FedEx.

I will post additional pictures of the frags in the aquarium as soon as I can take a decent shot.

Once again, thank you Ian for making this such a smooth transaction.

Thanks everybody, I don't have a macro lens on my D60, so it's very hard to get decent pictures.

I'll try and take more pictures and filter out the terrible ones. Pictures coming soon.

@spspirate, it took me months to find somebody selling a 1 eye frag. Just keep on looking at the Selling forum, you'll find someone selling a one eye eventually.

Happy hunting.

Alright everybody, I finally have pictures of my BCP Flamethrower.

I really need to get a macro lens, but they are just too expensive. So I am actually at a crossroads of either spending money on a macro lens or finally finishing up my 40 breeder build with either (2) Aqua Illumination Nano's or Tek Elite 6x39w fixture.

I never knew exactly how expensive this hobby could be, but I LOVE it!

Below are the pictures I took with my HTC Thunderbolt, since I don't have a Macro lens for my Nikon D60.

Thanks Fab. I've been babying and feeding it mysis ever since I got it.

I've heard that the FT is a slow grower, so we'll see how long it takes to becoming a mini colony.

I will try and take frequent pictures of it, so in a few months I'll be able to post progression shots.

Thanks Darrell, I stare at the frag every single day, waiting for it to grow.

My wife thinks I'm crazy.
