This chalice as off now looks like ice blue color and a pink rim forming, it has some healing up to do, look at they eyes

These are the zoas

these are black looking down and brown skirted with a purple/black bod yfrom the side

mini colony 2

Blue mini colony

None of these have names, so suggest some

Be prepared to start dosing alot of CA,Montipora suck it up fast.

They look nice,little small,but they will grow over that plug I bet in a little over 2-3 months.Probably faster.

Ok i will test CA more often, i was happy with the size of them!

 

[clowns101]

Ya,they are little suckers of CA,Good luck.

They do look almost exactly the same, but those have some green in the black, mine has purple..i guess lighting could make that happen

the flesh is pulling away on that chalice. You'd better watch it closely. First chalice pic upper left.

 

[KLR]

yea i no, it wasnt that bad in the pic from the vendor, is there any good ways to keeping maximum health on a chalice in that condition?

my method for "helping" chalices is what SDguy told me- if it's not looking great, give it a revive dip and put it at the bottom of the tank, or a little more in the shade than it was. So far it's worked out good for me.

i dipped it when i got it, its midway. in a overhang type area,mostly shaded but some parts arent, should that be good enough?

I start all corals on the bottom of my tank and move them up slowly.

very nice!

Watch the coral, it'll tell you if it's good enough or not, ya know? If it keeps receding, give it more shade. If it looks happy and healthy, don't mess with it if it doesn't need to be messed with.
