I might down for a zoa, acan, or zoa/acan grow out. I can't afford until Mid-May though. :/

------------------------------------------------

You guys better post pics during the grow out so we can tag along. :coolmad:
 
Just waiting to hear back from a couple people and then we can move this forward...:look:
 
Alright everyone here is an updated list of who is in the group

1. Stuckey_t
2. Dave (trucolor)
3. Kevin (kevlake2005)
4. Matt (rihanssu)
5. This spot is open

We have spot number 5 opened up again, buy in is $300 to complete the group
Here is the "dream" list we are planning on ordering from Jason fox. Pictures and descriptions can be found here:

1. Firefox chalice
2. Intense watermelon
3. Raving pyscho chalice
4. Twilight zone chalice
5. My miami chalice
6. Untouchable
7. Super King

Going to ask if he will include the reef koi red into the pack and any other freebie he wants to include:) All in all should be an awesome group of corals!
 
Great pack! Is your plan to grow one eye per person? Who is grower?

Kinda off topic, but does anyone else agree that the District 9 chalice is a COMPLETE rip off. Around here, that would go for like $15 an eye.

I would agree based on that picture, though that is not actually a "Jason Fox Release". That one originally came from WWC and apparently carried a $150 price tag for the first frags, so you can thank them for the inflated price tag.
 
Kevin and Dave are paid. Still haven't heard back from Fox. Going to see if anyone on reef2reef can get me in touch with him....

1. Neil - Paid
2. Nick (nlandgraf) - Paid
3. Dave (trucolor) - Paid

If all 6 people end up paying, we should look at adding in crazy fox. Or possibly look to a hobbyist for it. :)
 
For those participating in the grow out...

What are your top 3 choices?

Mine are:
1) Split Decisions
2) Raving Psycho
3) Super King
 
1. my miami
2. arabella
3. crazy fox

I'm more into rare watermelon colorations than the tie dyes
One thing that scares me is that most of JF's corals are cut to order. I have a far greater success rate with chalices that have healed for a few weeks before shipping than cut and ship (especially since I am sure these will be very small frags). I wonder if he would be willing to cut them and let them heal in his tanks for 3-4 weeks before shipping?

That's going to be the plan if he will agree. 1. I hate getting tiny frags 2. 3-4 weeks to heal is huge and I too have had much better success with those:look:

The Split Decisions is very cool, but it's very, very spendy!

I agree, healing is good. I hope he will reply to your PM and help us out!

Do not have his phone number yet or I would be calling him...seems silly he would not be all over this:)

I think he's a mechanic by trade, so he may have a few things going on. Is there contact info on his website?

There is an update on Gmail that when you click on it, instead of opening some weird email app, it takes you to Gmail.

Here is what I got when I clicked it:

To: jasonfoxcorals@yahoo.com

CC: jafautorepair@yahoo.com

LMK if those work :beerchug:
