I've got some good sized frags of electric blue cespit's I'd like to trade for nice SPS, chalices, or other odd corals (Cephastreas, Leptastrea, etc.). These are the same as the ones Tyree slapped his name on recently. I've had them for over a year and they are finally starting to grow for me. Frags are 2-3" (likely more) and about .5-.75" around.

Let me know what you've got.
 
Pics?
 
Since when did Tyree have anything to do with a cespitularia?
 
He had some of Umis Blue Xenia from garretts acropolis on his auction site a while back but it wasn't an LE or anything...

http://www.garretts-acropolis.com/ under the other section. He states its not a cespit. but accually a true xenia. Whatever it is, Ive seen it in person and its not your normal blue cespit... VERY blue...
 
Sorry Gflat, not trying to correct you or derail your thread, just putting info out there...
 
I meant to get some pics up.

I didn't know anythnig about a Tyree Cespit until someone was looking for one the other day. It was listed as Tyree Pink Lemonade Cespit... Below is a link from the Atlanta forum where they use the name. I thought I had seen it for sale on an actual "LE' site, but can't find it now.

This is the gflat electric blue Cespit;).

Here is a top down. When the sun comes through the door (when it's warm enough to leave it open), these things glow. A flashlight also brings out the color:D.

I just snapped some quick shots. A couple without flash (under 175W 14K Coralvue-about 1/3 as intesnes as the 3 year old Ushio 14K I just replaced-not sure I like the Coralvue...), and a couple with flash.

They seem to look best with yellow light. I'd bet these guys really rock under 6K...
 
PM's replied to. Here are some of the things I'd love to find and some of the things I already have.

lokani's (20,000, 30,000 Leagues), Reverse sunset, Icefire echinata (and other echinata's), Orenji, forest fire digi, $500 efflo, sand dollar monti, other cool encrusting monti's, or odd growth forms (deepwater acros, etc.). I'm not opposed to unnnamed, either, if they are different. Nearly any chalice. I've got the Tyree Watermelon and what almost looks like an orange watermelon (more orange than green by far, though), but not much else on the chalice front.

I've got the rainbow monti, true SM, meteor shower (and a couple of other Ceph's, but always looking for more), Pink lemonade, raspberry limeade, Pink jade, Garf PB, Mike Palleta Blue (tenius), a highliter yellow/green multiacuta (similar to suharsonoi, but thicker stalks), a couple of different pink with blue/turquise polyp stylo's, a couple of different pink mille's (bright pink, pastel pink with blue tips), Tyree undata, etc. I think I've got the same thing as the Jedi Mind Trick, too (pastel fluorescent green with a blue/purple rim and orange polyps).
 
That link you posted is my thread. Read it a bit closer. The electric blue cespitularia pictured is that only. It is not a Tyree coral period, nor is it referred to as one.

The Tyree Pink Lemonade mentioned is the Tyree Pink Lemonade Acropora.

That must be where the guy from the second post got the name from, then. Glad to hear Tyree hasn't decided to step deeper into the softie market yet, then...
