It is, he has the sickest orange convict around!

Oh yeah! I love going to his place to pick up, it's like reefer heaven. Can't even imagine the stuff he has and doesn't post sometimes for sale.

Some amazing stuff. I always see stuff there I wish he would post. I get almost all my coral from him, that and upscales.

iPhone photo so white balance is way off, but here's a side by side I've always wanted to see. PEA Santa Fe Sunrise/JF Split Decisions left. Bahama Mama right.

Thanks. I've heard the Bahama Mama is a pretty good grower and the Santa Fe Sunrise/Split Decisions is a pretty good dier. I cannot attest to either because I've only had the Bahama Mama for two weeks, and my Santa Fe Sunrise is still alive after 6 months. I have not seen a tremendous amount of growth from the Santa fe Sunrise. I'm not sure if this means that it's growing faster, but the rim is much thicker on the Bahama Mama.

Alpha Charlie Sheen

https://www.reef2reef.com/forums/ge...6-charlie-sheen-chalice-showoff-must-see.html


VIDEO 1: This is a video of the Charlie Sheen mini colony compared to other chalices in my tank. I've never seen anything like the pink flames on an orange rim. It already has blue pimples and some other streaks of color coming in. Stunning piece! Note: I'm 6'8" and have big hands ;)

VIDEO 2: This is the Color Comparison video where I show off the Sheen under Blue Actinic t5's first, then Full Spectrum t5's, then Blue LED's, all in one shot so there is guaranteed to be no camera trickery! You can clearly see the lights in the background changing. Also you can see a few angles of the Sheen and the colonies that the frags will come from.
