Is this a flamethorower Chalice?

skinz78 · Feb 20, 2011

I recently bought this from a vendor and I don't remember what they had it advertised as, I am thinking it is too good to be true because I got it for way too cheap. It is developing a yellow ring and has a red base with blue streaks.

Very nice chalice indeed but not a F.T. I'm afraid.

It might be a ft but not a bpc flamethrower. Depends on the vendor. There are a couple of ft's out there.

Naw I guarantee from where I got it from it isn't a BPC FT.

Looks like its going to grow into a pretty nice piece either way.:)

Not a bpc FT. It's not just the color that is off, but also seems like the corallite structure is different. Not the same species imo.

Yeah I am looking at the FT thread and it seems that mine is more flat growing and the BPC is more bubbly looking. Plus mine doesn't have the yellow eyes.

Here is another one that is slightly different than the first one. Same coralite structure though. I couldn't get a good top down pic of it.

Not a BPC but it does look like the UWW Flamethrower a bit.

Yea hands down not a BPC, uww and trops is a possibility though.

Looks like I need a frag in my tank! LMK when you frag that bad boy

Looks like the piece that was being sold called Gold Blush awhile back

thats the bad thing about names, how do you know if you got the real thing? either its a very nice piece!

Thanks guys! I like it a lot and I am not too sure if I will frag it when the time comes. Depends on how grown out my tank becomes, I like the mature look and I'm not too big on fragging.
