I scanned through the posts here looking for what I have with no luck, I could have overlooked it but I searched for a while with no luck hopefully someone can help me out.

That doesn't look like a chalice. I'm not 100% sure about what it is coz of the ultra actinic lighting, but it sure looks like Pectinia coral.
 
I can't get a picture that isn't really blue, but yea could be something else. It's a blue base, has pink eyes with green around them
 
I looked through WWC and found a laser beam chalice that looks very similar just not quite like mine

It is a mycedium, could be a robokaki or a group often referred as laser beams chalice. Several have been named but many look alike even between named ones.
 
Yes I looked that up on Jason fox site looks just like the picture he has of it. Maybe if I can get a good picture of it he can comfirm it?
 
This is my avatar chalice... looks kinda like it

That looks darn good. I am nursing mine back. Did not have it in enough light, and my nitrates are running high, and getting them down now.
 
New favorite WWC Hologram chalice... just starting to grow.

That is a nice Hologram chalice. I won the hot stuff chalice back in late summer on the drawing from the auction. Of course it died due to me not having the right lights and dosing the way I am now I wish I still had that one. I am at that point of looking for a couple of more choice corals. Have you seen the WWC Deep space Tenuis? That is one of the corals I am after, just a deep blue really cool, and another hot stuff just to prove to myself that I have made the right changes:)
 
I have some gel filters that might help with the blue in the pictures. I got a hold of Jason Fox and he couldnt confirm the coral since its still on the plug from Indonesia. He did say it appeared to be an avatar chalice though.
