Show me your chalice dominant tanks!

[Smokeshow]

Thats what it was labeled as. I bought it from a ebay seller out of Florida. It was a WYSIWYG sale. But looking back at the listing the picture in the add shows its green with green eyes. Maybe just my lights. Not sure

 

[MentalNote]

I LOVE your pink one with the green eyes. What is it?

I'm not sure of a name. I bought if from a coral shop in Charlotte, NC. It was a bit more expensive then normal, but I had the same reaction - I really like it. Only problem is that this one grows the slowest. It is a little bigger now as that image is about a month old, but its taken years to fill out that plug.

Miami Hurricane is definitely one of my favorite chalices. Usually around $30 even online for a good sized frag. Punisher corals as a couple right now. Here my bad boy View attachment 1725103

Miami hurricane and goldeneye? These are probably my 2 favorites. The flesh on the goldeneye just seems so surreal to me.

Thanks, yes miami hurricane, not sure about the other, the store just said pink and orange. I don’t believe it is golden eye because the eyes are more orange than the bright yellow so it appears more like flamethrower than golden eye.

Depends on how you define dominate

Chalices definitely dominate the $$$ of corals in my tank, but only take up a small corner right now. So probably like 70% of the coral budget, but only 5% of the space.

One day it will be both!

I'm hoping to have all chalice and favia in my next tank, so the $$$ vs starting size is noticable.

Love the ASD! They don't have anything that looks like that at the moment but I will keep my eyes peeled. How fast are they growing?
