Rainbow Chalice Coral (Puck) Transform Your Tank with a Living Kaleidoscope
Looking for a coral that genuinely stops you mid-glance? The Rainbow Chalice is one of the most coveted LPS corals in the saltwater aquarium hobby — and The Coral Boutique's pucks are hand-selected for maximum color expression. With swirling combinations of red, orange, pink, green, and gold radiating from each corallite, no two Rainbow Chalice specimens are exactly alike. If you're building a high-impact reef tank display, this is the piece that earns the spotlight.
Each puck is a well-established frag mounted and ready for placement in your reef system. Rainbow Chalice corals (Echinophyllia sp.) are large-polyp stony corals that grow in broad, plate-like formations, making them ideal as a mid-to-low-placement showpiece on rockwork or sandy substrate. They're relatively forgiving under stable parameters — rewarding for intermediate hobbyists and irresistible to serious collectors chasing color.
