PPE Prism Chalice

[pwoller]

So is it a chalice, or something else?

I bet if it was a favia the price would be less, right?

You really should contact Juice...I was over yesterday and can tell you he has a frag ready to go....you will NEVER find better service before, during and after the sale....Great seller, and Great Aquaculturalist....

 

[ddr_phish]

Well I would except for the fact that they haven't returned my emails...

 

[MitchReef]

I will call him...that's not the norm.....

 

[WWC]

Whoever is willing to give up one, I want! :D

Tyree has one in his auction right now that I got from Roblack

How are you guys getting so much purple out of yours. Mine looks nothing like those pics. Here is a pic of mine.

 

[ddr_phish]

Looks like this coral grows pretty fast, everyone who has it seems to have a mini-colony!!

JZ, looks like you may be hitting it with too much light. Move it down or to the side, and maybe partially shaded for a bit and it should start to color up for you. This coral can change a bit depending on conditions, but looks best with the bright purple, green, and blue IMO.

What is the best place to put this coral?

It seems to like direct light, but lower in par - around 2-300 is where I have it with mh's.....
DARK purple and bright green color...

Certainly does not look like an Echino or Mycedium - more like a favia or possibly even a blasto. Could be a bit of marketing, who knows...

 

[BigBoy69]

Whatever it is, it's awesome.

 

[Znut Reefer]

I'm also looking for a frag of this. Anyone want to trade? Drop me a PM :)

Def looks like some kind of favia family to me.

Purchase

Whatever it is, I'll pay the market value of $225 for 1 eye of this thing. Anyone have a piece? All I ask is a WYSIWYG pic, and that it has had time to heal after you frag it.

 

[reefboy]

defiantly not a chalice but nice.

 

[droblack]

It's a previously unidentified species of favia IMO.

 

[myreef2reef]

It's probably best & easiest to get it directly from R.Negret...I just got a 1 eye frag...although still a little small, crossing my fingers that it'll grow fast like everyone's been stating...

 

[stylaster]

only way to tell for sure is to kill the main colony and send it to a coral id expert like veron ;) hehe
