I should of read the threads before I responded the first time. Wow dude 1mbrews8 I have never ripped anyone off and never would. This has been the first time I've been away from this thread. I have a nice collection of my own chalices and saome very nice ones, my systems not perfect but it stands its own and if I got them in the first place they would have been alive or I would of replaced them. I agreed to take the ones from S.D. that he thought could make the shipping after his tank completly crashed. After receiveing the sick chalices I took pic's of them all that were sent to me and asked for help from any-one in the thread and stated I am too busy to take this responsibility on myself and basically pleaded for any type of help. I called SD and text him asking for the names to hear nothing back from him.. So I got busy not with just work but family stuff which made it that more worse. I back now and will be for the next two months then I'll be gone for two and agree to devide the corals up. I have the boxs for you guys so we dont hgave to buy those. I have never shipped before but received enough to know how to do it right. I am far from happy with this grow out. I trusted in Sd and was convienced that he was the best grower. I know **** happens but I thought the coral grower had some responsibility. That is true you need good communication but the key is a good grower from the start and set the rules espeically if the corals die. Ckeck this out the grow outs space invader fell on my dooms day ( nice quarter size) ,no need to worry the dooms day died. Man, I have 3 space invaders plus our grow outs all roughly the same size but one dooms day. Lesson learned. Anyways I'll take inventory and pic's of what I have and if the other grower does the same we can go from there.

This stinks the two small ones witherd away and the one in the rear looks like it reseded a bit but hasnt got any worse. I havent had any changes in my tank until today I had to take off cuz my power went out a my temp. spiked to 82, I think I caught everything in time and most of everything is doing ok. I'll take pic's of the Space invader which is still one large eye and the other one. I feel terriable that this grow out went so wrong. Has any one talked to SD yet to find out if he's replacing any of the chalices that died in his tank. I have a large collection so if there is anything I can do I will. I'll take more pic's later..

Remember Sd sent me 7 chalices after his tank crashed and I took pic's of them all when I received them so I wouldnt get blamed for there rough shape and or dieing in my tank once I got them. The chalices that are alive in my tank now I will take responsibility for them but only them and not the ones SD had. It was a group decision to have SD be the grower. I have to look back but I remember there was someone who said they would only be in the growout if SD was the grower. Trust me I'm up-set to and am out the same as everyone. I thought I was doing everyone a favor by getting our chalices to a stable tank and from SD before they all died and or disappeared. My tank runs cherry and I have some nice peices of my own growing for awhile.. Sure I have issues now and then but catch them in time not to cause full blown death. I test every day because of the amount of $ I have invested and would be devastated if that we could use for replacemnts but to be honest with you I want to get out. The last three grow outs I was in (me not being a grower in any of them) all turned into a nightmare.. Thanks to Joker in my first grow-out that he saved just in time. I'm doing my best with what I have to work with and like everyone else can't afford to just throw $ away.

Thanks again for everything. Maybe we can trade some chalices when my chalices grows big. I think SD did a good job it might be the corals to start out with being so small and not fully encrust in the frags. It was a joke paying so much and the frags being so small.

Ok guys. I think I talked to everyone. Let me know if you have any objections or suggestions but I think we are in agreement that we need to 1) Figure out what we have and then 2) split these out to everyone. Although we haven't really seen Paint Guys stuff I believe he has:

Paint Guy
1) My Miami 3-4 eyes
2) Three Acans
3) One Favia.

From the pictures I believe JD Reef has:

JD Reef
1) Flamethrower
2) Space Invader
3) Hybrid Watermelon
4) Pink *******
5)
6)
7)

Please add the names of the one's I don't know about. Or please provide feedback. Once we get the list we can decide if any are worth fragging or if we just take a couple each.

One looks like pink ******* and one looks like watermelon. But I agree it's hard to tell from pictures.
