Brian did you need any money for food? I'm a strong believer in feeding chalices and I know over the course of 6 months, or however long it takes, that it's going to add up in cost. Hate for you to foot all the coin. LMK. Derek

When i get my camera back from a certain grower I will post a pic of the Crazy Fox. Its been fragged as a single eye for 3 weeks now and has a solid growth rim. It gladly takes generous portions of Reef Caviar every other day.

Thanks for this Derek! But I really don't mind- I feed all my stuff fairly often, the little bit that these guys are consuming (compared to the rest of everything) just really aint enough for me to worry about. I'll trade the cost of food for getting to look at them while they're growing, sound fair? :xd: And yea- I feed roughly 2-5 times a week, with some alternating to keep things mixed up.

Sounds good Brian. Take care of our babies and hopefully they'll be grown by end of the summer! I'm looking forward to seeing progress pictures. Never really tracked growth rates closely

The Beerman was just wondering if we got the rest of the chalices or were they going to be shipped? Just curious to see pictures. Thanks.

With the shipping things going on, I'm thinking I'm just going to foot the gas and make a run up to LA and pick them up and not have to take the risk of something happening. Most likely it'll happen on Monday but I'll let you guys know a for sure either way.

The Crazy Fox is at Scott's place, and I've sort of stolen his camera temporarily- He might have another one to get a temp photo up of, but otherwise just bear with me while I finish taking new photo's of my collections.

I seem to have lost my secondary camera, so when i get mine back from Brian i'll get a pic up of the CF.

As an update on the CF tho, its now accepting full reef caviar eggs along with the fauna marin zoa/acan food and has feeder tentacles out every night at 8. He's growing up so fast :angel:

you've weened him off of baby food :tongue:




=Mini-update guys, Mike got pulled out of town on something emergency-ish, i didn't ask for details in case it's something personal, but basically he'll be out of town for about a week and a half it seems. Once he's back I'll pick up the Rainbow Magic and Purple Urkle (along with my prize pack, oh the waiting :cry: ) So yea, sorry for the setback all, but I'm sure it'll work out fine and I'll just use some special Irish Growth secrets to get the pieces caught up to the rest!

Getting the camera back tomorrow, I will have a pic of the Crazy Fox in the next day or two.

I am also moving it into my new up-and-running frag tank tonight where i will head into maximum feeding mode. Its looking good, expanding really well and looking great.

Finally got Scott his camera back (thanks again for letting me bum it man!!) so he should be able to put a pic up in the next couple of days!

Otherwise, still waiting on Mr. Sexy to get back in town, but beyond that all the pieces are looking good!

Now that we narrowly avoided the rapture, I will have quite a bit of time tomorrow. I will get some pics of it up tomorrow afternoon.

Nice Scott!



Hey guys, a mini-update here- heard from Mike that there's been some complications that mean he's not getting back into town till beginning of June. He's got a buddy helping take pics and ship stuff, but doesn't want anyone else cutting the frags for us as they're a bit more delicate. I'll try and get an pic update done this week to make up for the delay- everything's looking good though!
