Transform Your Tank with Bold, Eye-Catching Chalice Color
Looking for a showpiece coral that stops you mid-scroll... The Rainbow Jellybean Chalice in orange is exactly that. This Echinophyllia sp. variant is prized among serious reef keepers for its vivid orange base, punctuated by contrasting eye patterns that seem to glow under reef lighting. Chalice corals of this caliber are selectively acquired — this isn't something you'll find at a chain store, and pieces like this move fast.
Chalice corals are encrusting growers, spreading steadily across rockwork and frag plugs to create a living mosaic effect over time. They're a rewarding choice for intermediate reef keepers — not demanding, but attentive enough to respond visibly to good husbandry with richer color and faster growth. Place it on a lower rock shelf with gentle, indirect flow and watch it claim its territory.
