My Meng. The diameter is a little larger than a golf ball. Point and shoot. The green is so bright I can not get a good pic.

I've seen and come across many many chalices, but by far...my all time favorite is the OME. This frag below I have acquired at a swap 2 months ago is growing like crazy. This piece is actually this bright in person, not photo shop. It is the smallest chalice frag I have in my tank and is definitely the brightest one also.

Anyone have pics of Oregon Mummy Eye next to the Original Mummy Eye ?

+1 I want to see how different. I have the Original Mummy Eye and it is pretty brilliant! From what I can see the green looks more neon and the eyes have a blue ring on the inside. Although I can see a hint of blue on the inside of the eyes on my Original Mummy Eye...

Look at the eyes on one of the frags I have:

Original ME develops the Mountain Dew Yellow / Green coloration as it gets exposed to more lighting... the new growth always start out as a nice green color though... I think the Oregon ME stays green no matter what light it's under...

here's what I'm talking about... :wink:

These are not great photos but it gives you an idea of the color contrast between the Oregon and Original. These photos were taken quite a while back. The Oregon colony has a bunch more eyes now and the color of the Original has shifted to more of an orange due to placement.

One of several Oregon mummy eye colonies I have.
