The Chalices that "Disappeared"

[KLR]

Today I realized that I do not see or even hear of a lot of these really nice chalices anymore! Some of them are "classics" in some people's minds and others are not. If you have one of these chalices please share a current picture of it.

oh... when I look at my photobucket account, I miss the RSC Rainbow. it's the nicest chalice I've had. now, all the Rainbow chalices are much better coz of the colored rim.

I have these...RHS Del Sol Watermelon
LE Red Watermelon

I will get pics later, kinda small though. I got the rhs del sol from Jason Fox a few months back at the Reefraft opening.

These aren't named echino's but man where they fun to watch color up. Looking at these pics.... really miss those T5's :( Starting to get the itch to do a T5 LPS display like I had a few years ago... Maybe someday :)

Yea it is nice for sure. But from what I can remember the RSC Rainbow had a whole different appearance, plus I am not sure if there were multiple look alikes. But don't get me wrong I love the new rainbows that are coming in too!

Sweet! I will keep my eyes out for them.

Nice! You should start up another one!

Hehe thanks!! It's amazing what a little TLC can do along with the right T5 bulbs :)

I actually see the LE pink wm for sale all the time. LE red wm, not so much. It's a very slow grower for me!

(Little bleached from the new bulbs but it colored back up since then)

I forgot to post beside those two and the Meng's Mummy Eye, that it is not hard to find a frag to buy but no one seems to talk about them or even show off their, what should be colonies, anymore. Nice mini colony!

Here is my RSC Rainbow. Not the best picture as I took it with my phone. I have had it for about 4 years and have fragged it alot. Some of you that have it may have gotten it from me through Nanofins.

This is absolutely insane! Now I feel like I need to go frag hunting for a piece to put in my tank!

Sick^!

You know that I love the classics, and in todays society, no one wants old, always new.

If I ever set my tank back up, I want classics, thats it. THOSE are what I knew when I got in the hobby. Red WM was what My Miami used to be when it first came out. That all ended....
