-a nice and bright base colour (duh)
-contrasting eyes (green wont cut it here, must be yellow,orange,pink,red etc.)
-a green rim or contrasting coloured rim
-splashes of other colours in the body

any combination of these traits are good and finally we come to the explanation of what a proper rainbow chalice is.... basically it has a multicoloured base with contrasting eyes and contrasting rim.

Hows your frag doing? Im sure you saw a picture of my mother colony. I have had that one for over a year if you were curious. Chalices love to be feed as a tip...it will grow much faster if you can get it to eat.
Thanks for the info Darryl, the frag is doing very well. Here's a few photos of the little guy.


I was afraid portions were possibly bleaching but I'm pretty sure that's just the eye forming process now? The area lightened and then a little green spot formed, got larger and then a mouth popped up! Second new eye since I've gotten it, slow grower but hands down my favorite!

PUNNIISHHHERRRRR!!! CONTROLL!!! (aka photo dump)
