[stylaster]

Its been awhile so here are some updates of the chalice delight tank!

looks awesome. Really like the tank. With the chalices draped over the rocks, it looks like an salvadore dali painting

This is tank is so nice great job on the growth you can't see the rock work

Very nice! I get scared having so many nice corals so close together though, mine have a habit of devouring each other.

dang sweeper tentacles!! haha

So, @stylaster, I forget - what do you feed your chalices to keep them happy!! With all those eyes, you must be doing something right

Wow, too close together or not...its still real cool with all you have going on! I am kinda partial to the natural look of things growing together...and through eachother.

Thanks guys! Lots of trial and error with coral placement. I have been lucky and seems that most of the chalices get along just fine and will grow into each other without an issue. There are a couple that dont play nice, like the hollywood stunner and couple others.

I like the shot of the cyphastreas, the colors are really nice not sure how that sneaky digitata got in there

The chalice in the next pictures is beautiful as well. Gorgeous colonies!

Amazing tank - you obviously put a lot of love and effort into it - thanks for sharing! Beautiful corals - the draping and growing into each other is just gorgeous

 

[stylaster]

Thank you, its grown together very nicely. I was surprised at the number of corals that grew together and not killed each other
