This has now become one of my all time favorites. I guess because it has down so well in our system. Do you guys remember the "name that chalice" contest we did several months back? This is the After Burner chalice that we made an exclusive at OIAB. I did a bunch of frags and just left them alone for a while and when I went out to do some tank maintanance I went to pick up a frag and couldnt believe the coloration around the rim. What do you think?

To tell the truth, i didn't really like that chalice when you first showed it. It looked a bit boring to my eye. And I was shocked when it sold on ebay for the price it did. But those new shots are really nice.

I know what you mean. But deep down I really felt like it had great potential. The colony was so large I really wasnt focusing on the rim as much as I was looking at the brite glowing eyes.
