Letting your chalice corals grow on the sand..

[Amstar]

Chalice frags are ok but chalice colonies are something special to behold!

How many of you allow your chalice corals to grow on the sand? If not the sand where? Photos would be appreciated!

What kind of chalice is this? Watermelon?

5 year old brittle sea star. I don’t know why mine is so large he stretches 2’+ when reaching for food.

Mines 3. Woo hoo. That’s great.

Sandbed here! It’s the best place for it lighting wise in my tank. I’ve had them grow on rockwork as well in the past.

Glad I found this thread I just got one on Sunday have it on the sandbed as well. Hope it does well new to chalice corals.
