How's yours doing and what placement did you choose?


Mine is kicking butt under high light, it has a big fat leading growth edge and is developing its trademark blue eyes. I'll post a pic later.

mine faded under high light a bit. Not as much as my other chalices did when I swapped to the t5's but enough to notice. I'm not too worried. I've made an artform out of bleaching corals from light and recovering them:/ I think it has a lot of promise though!

Need picture.

Was thinking along the lines of cereal when I read the title of the thread :D

It's on a part of my frag rack that's difficult to shoot, you can see the growth though :)

Oh, that thing from the swap. I thought it was blueberry that was being auctioned instead of the boo berry.

I picked up one of those too at NA the other day. The sucker doesn't mind being 12" underneath the 'saki unlike other chalices which bleach out.

Yeah, I've never had a chalice that loves light as much, I was quite surprised.

I have another that I picked up from NA that also loves light; pink with what looks like a green eye. These are the only two that I've had that is taking the light in strides. I have to hide the others underneath the mag-rack or off to the sides where they get less light.

I put my "boo berry" in a medium flow, medium light area close to the glass. It has been eating super well and looking healthy but I can't tell yet if I'm getting any growth. I may try a higher light area and see how that works.

That puffy leading edge is a sure fire sign that it's growing.

Nice pic BTW.
