The first person to have their chalice's flesh touch the frag plug is the winner

I think mine's already reaching for the frag plug which reminds me, I need my Feb. pic

Here's mine. Hopefully this won't be the last pic. I just finished moving my aquarium 50 miles. In the past, bad things have happened when I move fish tanks. Fingers crossed everything makes it...

I've been target feeding mine reef roids and its seemed to really help. I've only fed it twice now but even my wife said its looking healthier. She said, "I've never seen him so puffed up".

I took mine off its plug and attached it to my rock then took a picture of the frag plug on top of it. Does that count?

Looking real good Steven! Any tips? Whatcha doing?

Thanks a lot! I have it in medium light/flow under a 360w. I was going to put it on the sand bed, but I picked a nice spot on my frag rack for it. It has more light than most of my chalices, I noticed my miami hurricane was growing nicely on this rack so I put it next to it and it is looking happy! I dont really target feed it, maybe once a week.

Looks like I'm up to 4 eyes this month. In the right light I can see a few spots that look like good candidates for future eyes. We'll see...
FYI: Since my last post, I added Tunze instant coral gum around the edge of the frag to promote outward growth versus downward growth.

Very smart! I usually do the same thing with coral frags that encrust. Except I use superglue to bridge the gap between the coral edge and the plug.

Great color, really like the contrast where the new eye is coming in. There is a huge difference from your first post. Nice work!

Sorry for the crappy image, Water distortion. Not much growth...

 

[Merith]

Here's mine, looking a little better now maybe a little growth on the one side.

Here's my Feb Pic. Mine's looking so bad I considered just dropping out, but who knows... maybe it'll bounce back.

It's so interesting how even though these frags are all parts of the same coral, they grow so differently from each other.
