This particular specimen is WYSIWYG, meaning what you see in the photo is exactly what you will receive. This coral is a robust and visually appealing choice for both beginner and experienced reef keepers. This Chalice coral will be an excellent addition and will thrive in your home reef aquarium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChalice corals thrive under moderate to low PAR (50-150 PAR) lighting. Too much light can cause bleaching, while too little can lead to a loss of coloration and poor growth. A gentle to moderate, indirect water flow is ideal to prevent detritus from settling on its surface without causing tissue damage. It is best placed on the bottom or middle of the aquarium on a rock structure where it can spread its encrusting or plating growth form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile primarily photosynthetic, Chalice corals benefit from supplemental feeding. Offer small meaty foods such as target-fed Mysis shrimp, brine shrimp, or other coral-specific frozen foods a few times a week, ideally when its feeding tentacles are extended at night. Maintain stable water parameters: Temperature 75-78°F, Salinity 1.025-1.026, Alkalinity 8-10 dKH, Calcium 400-450 ppm, Magnesium 1300-1400 ppm, and Nitrates 5-10 ppm with Phosphates as close to 0.03 ppm as possible. These parameters are crucial for long-term health and vibrant coloration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChalice corals are generally peaceful but can be aggressive with sweeper tentacles that extend at night. Ensure adequate spacing from other corals to prevent chemical warfare or stinging. When acclimating, a drip acclimation method over 1-2 hours is recommended to minimize stress. Place it in an area of the tank with appropriate lighting and flow, and observe for any signs of stress or irritation. This hardy coral will reward you with its unique beauty and growth if its care requirements are met.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWYSIWYG item\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Eastern Marine Aquariums","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42285638320183,"sku":"EMA-LPS-20260626-4LG0","price":90.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1849\/1739\/files\/cdd85130-435d-414d-8096-7b8c0553a2c3-_MG_4129.png?v=1782496605","url":"https:\/\/easternmarineaquariums.co.nz\/products\/neon-green-eye-chalice","provider":"EasternMarine Aquariums","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
