Oh and if we did another I'd prefer chalices since the two chalice growouts I'm in on this site didn't work out. And although I am now a believer in acans these are A LOT of acans. This is a 3 foot frag rack I threw together to put them all on.

Snapped this pic with my iPhone as I looked at the tank tonight. It's #13 from the second shipment...I think 'The Burning Ember' would be a great name...

That thing looks awesome and it seems like everyones happy-thats good to hear. I'll do an inventory tomorrow and list whats left and the poylp count

My Crazy Fox chalice killed one of my highliter polyps, I hope the other pulls through. I would have thought that an acan would win but nooooooo

I wish it would have killed the chalice, I got 4 frags and only the one acan. I had my My Miami chalice sting an acan awhile ago and it wiped it out too-rotten chalices, I think I'm selling all of mine but a few.

I'll try and get some pics too

I hope everyones is doing good and I wanted to throw a quick update out here
What I have left is the following, remember the 'resurrection" acan never resurrected it died, which out of all I got I am bummed but OK with it.

Illicium-2 (still)
Riddler- 1 (still)
Canberry Tort- 6
Yuki-7
Tokoyo Tart 2.0 -4 maybe 5, its tough to tell, these heads are like 2" around and I cant see underneath but I will peak later

Anyway the last 3 are slow but growing the first 2, I dont think they will ever grow-Financial mentioned he had heard people fragging acan and them living, dunno maybe we take a head of the Illicium and cut it in half and see what happens. I'm good with waiting awhile though, I just got a fresh bottle of Fuana Marin LPS pellets so hopefully thet hepls. The other FM food was a joke IMO.

Well thats all to report, I can try and get some pics up soon but I got to frag the rest of my chalices up for a trade I'm working on-

Well, my tank is basically crashing. I've already lost about a half dozen pieces and the rest aren't far behind. This may be the end of the road for me!

As soon as I thought everything was doing well again, no such luck.

Dang bro, sorry to hear that. I lost one from a turbo snail lay dead on there and I didn't know so it killed that acan too.

Dude that is terrible, do you have anyone that can take them for ya? There has to be someone local.

That's the worst read- if you cant find anyone I can make some space:sorry:

I'm gonna see what I can do to find someone local... I also sent a sample to aquariumwatertesting.com to see if they come up with anything. They've got some crappy reviews but I'm at a loss at this point.

Some pieces are looking just fine while others are literally melting away, I can blow white stuff off them. As far as my tests tell all params are in check. I gave them an iodine dip 2 days ago and a furan dip yesterday as well so we shall see.

Yeah Jeremy, I'd kick you some for free. Mine are doing good even growing some new heads. I was worried how the color would morph under my AI Sol's but they are keeping the color.
