It looks like one that seems to be showing up at a number of LFS. It has no "official" name but many LFS will give it one.
It is a tan-orange with black netting overlay. The chalice will get random green and blue blotches. Not sure the species of chalice but care is same as other chalices.

You may have. I believe it has come up in a few posts asking ID. The color of chalices can morph depending on lighting. The one you have can become lighter or darker base color. Have seen it orangey-gold and browish-tan. The blue or green blotches are random. Some frags will get both colors. Others just a tiny dot or two of one color. The general chalice ID is "only if it was purchased with a name". Even if the chalice looks like a named one. If lineage can not be established. It is a no name chalice. There are some great gems that have no name. And they don't carry the named price tag.

I have one of those, Neptune's called it a gold snakeskin. I keep mine on the bottom with lowish flow (its flesh ripples a little bit). I feed it two or three times a week and has been growing well for me.

I paid $40 for it, it was the size of a small plug as I recall. I had 2 eyes when I got it and its up to 4 now. I don't recall how long ago I picked it up.
