Hey all

So Ive only now just started appreciating chalices, so I snapped some shots of the few pieces I got in my tank. Nothing special, but lookin at them still makes me want to get more!

I just recently got inti them...don't know if I like them quite yet...but nice pics
 
You gotta love a coral that's easy to care for, doesn't require you to double you electric bill with lighting, and comes in some of the CRAZIEST colors.
 
Great start! Welcome to chalice addiction!
One tip is to save up for something you really really wanna get
 
They look nice but You should stop while you are ahead. Enough for now. Don't give into the hype and start spending $$$$$ Save your money because a couple of years from now when you aren't into reefkeeping you are going to kick yourself in the head for spending all that money.
Remember they are corals that sit in a glass box.
 
that if you grow and cut you can get your money back and get more things to put in your box
 
I've been hardcore in chalices for well over 3 years and I see no end in sight. Once you get the bug it's all over. Funny thing is I can remember back in 03-04' nobody wanted them

Yeah I know I have seen your posts on here and RC where you buy chalice frags and sell them soon after ultimately buying the next frag you desire to own. That's all good but it wears off trust me(whether it be 1yr or 10 years) I was like that but when you think of all the crazy money you spent and God forbid one of those pricey chalice frags dies you have a whole new outlook afterwards.
 
That was me about 1.5 years ago, I haven't bought or sold a coral online in so long I can't remember when the last time was, but you are right, it get's expensive. As I always tell people, there are a lot worse things that you can be blowing your money on than corals.
