Fed the my miami some turkey today..I know it's having a great Thanksgiving and I hope you all did too.

Our freebie is hanging on pretty well but isn't puffing out yet like acans should...still may need some healing time.

Our my miami is still looking great. I'm taking a lot of pics of it so we can really tell if there is any growth happening.

I sure hope you guys appreciate the work I'm doing on these little corals..

I sat here for two hours today with a turkey baster wielded in my right hand and a watchful eye on my lion fish....had to make sure that our baby my miami would be able to eat undisturbed.

It worries me that the thing may never grow..I know it hasn't been long...and if it eases your guys' minds (it eases mine), my other chalices are growing pretty well and are getting new eyes/mouths popping up pretty frequently.

ps: I haven't heard much from extremehobbyist or rayzback. I hope they're following along!

Might consider making some sort of protective screen cover, like a mini upside down strawberry basket, to make your life easier :)

I had the urine cup/weighted down method...but sometimes I find that if you talk to a chalice and sing songs (So happy together--The Turtles) to them, they tend to grow quicker and healthier...in my experience....so the two hours seems to be well spent.

So you're not referring to the MyMiami/Tangerine growout, alright with me :)

That's the most recent growout if I recall correctly.
actually the newest growout is ours "monster, miami, bpc, pink *******" and i do have to say they all are very very slow growers even the my miami.

Definitely appreciate it. It will grow, just might take a while. Keep the faith!
