Transform Your Tank with an ECC Cloudberries Chalice — A Designer LPS With Painterly Color Patterns
Looking for a chalice that brings warm, organic color movement to your saltwater aquarium? The ECC Cloudberries Chalice is one of Eye Catching Coral's most distinctive selections — soft cream, peach, and orange tones that swirl across the encrusting plate like brushstrokes. Sourced exclusively for The Coral Boutique, this is a designer chalice for collectors who appreciate subtle complexity over high-saturation neon.
Chalice corals are famously slow but steady growers — they encrust along live rock and develop new color zones as they mature. The Cloudberries variant rewards stable parameters with progressively richer tonal contrast as it acclimates. Perfect for the lower or shaded sections of an established reef tank where it can grow undisturbed and develop its painterly texture over time.

WHY BUY FROM THE CORAL BOUTIQUE?
Every coral at The Coral Boutique is hand-selected, ethically sourced, and conditioned in our quarantine system before it ever ships. Designer chalices need stable conditions to color up properly — we extend, feed, and verify each piece is encrusting cleanly and showing strong polyp extension before it leaves our system.
