I dont have nearly enough money to get this chalice atm, but i plan on getting it in a pack or by itself as my next live stock buy.....next to a led fixture........

Anyways, between the MM and Crazy Fox, i like the crazy fox better, for color and because it seems like not as many people own it

I want to ask all of you owners of this chalice, does it grow fast or sorda fast?
And is the color of the eyes actually as multi colored as the few pics ive seen shows?

From what ive heard MM grows fast and i wanted to know if CF was the same

Pictures of your frags would be great!


Thanks

I have both and in my opinion I like the crazy fox better. Mine is still only 1 eye but its a bright eye and at least for me it is growing faster then the My Miami. It was tiny when I got it and I thought it was not going to make it but now it is a nice half inch around and doing real good. At this size the 2 look almost the same side by side but I like the purple base of the crazy fox better.

How scared where you when you thought it wasn't going to stay alive? :p would suck HARD to drop a grand on something that may not survive.

Very scared. I actually traded a vendor a frag of BPC flamethrower with 4 or 5 eyes for it. When it came it was so tiny, like the size of an adult eye on a chalice. It was a baby eye with almost no flesh around it. Anyway the guy I traded with told me it was small but I didn't think it would be that small so I told him about my concern and he gave me a 3 month gaurantee on it so I calmed down a bit. Now its almost the size of a dime and very healthy.

I have both as well. I got both at the same time both had 1 eye but the CF was a tiny its just now starting to grow and putting on a new eye. My MM has 3 eyes now with another one starting and has doubled in size. I like both the same right now but it could change when the CF puts on a bit more weight and gets more adult colors

See? Now that's a story with a happy ending. You going to offer me a slice when it gets another eye? =c)
