Description
You are buying the exact coral in the photo — a full Ultra Chalice COLONY at 4″ x 2.5″, not a frag. Photographed under blue spectrum lighting and even more striking under whiter spectrum, where the pigments layer like poured glass.
About Chalice Corals (Echinophyllia)
Chalices encrust and plate outward in overlapping layers, and whole colonies skip the years a frag needs to become a display piece. Colony-sized chalice offerings are rare — most of the market is 1″ frags.
