Tell me what you know about Echnophoria (Chalice)


So I'm looking to add a chalice frag or two or three and I need info from those in the know. Seems to be a wide variance in what I am reading, from low to med to MH lighting. Also low to mod flow, I don't want to start on the wrong foot so before I take the leap please give it up. If you are having success with chalice, I have my lunch packed and ready to be schooled. I have had success with SPS and love the extreme colors in the echnophorias, thanks in advance.

Jose

Mine seem to do best shaded with the MH in my tank... so I would say that low-med light is best for them

Thanks Tony, Full shade or filtered, I am running 6 overdriven T5's and am looking to optimize color and growth. What about the water, I skim heavy and run at 80 deg. F.

filtered shade... i have no issues with the clean water in my SPS tank.. But They are fairly slow growing corals from what I have found. It may help to taget feed, but I'm not exactly sure
