Let's see those enchinata Pieces!!!! I have always loved them and after today scoring a Hawkins colony in a trade " fuego frag" I realized there my favorite stick hands down... I currently own colonies of the Aussie, Fiji, and now Hawkins with a frag of og ice fire which I believe is the same as the Fiji I can't seperate the differences in the two...
Let's see them post them up!!!!! My phone shots are not worthy but for giggles here they are....

Nice looking pieces Lee. I think that the best wild Echinata I've seen is the wild piece that Peter (SDGuy) got from Ian. Peter has shown pics on here of that piece and he has colored it up into a beauty!!! When they are colored up nicely, they're one of the nicest stonies out there!

Is that the blue or purple one Ian? It's hard to tell. That purple one was sweet.

Here's a pic of my tyree ice fire that I killed in the upgrade. I'll be growing another one out!

Beautiful pieces... I have the Hawkins but that's the only one so far. And although I love the look of my milli's, the echinatas just look so delicate/intricate, it really sets them apart than most of the other SPS.
