Common Mistakes to Avoid

please follow the path for success!

  • A common mistake is placing chalices in moderate-to-high flow areas thinking it will keep them clean.

    This can lead to:


    • failure to fully extend

    • tissue tearing or edge lift over time

    • difficulty feeding properly

    They prefer gentle, indirect flow, just enough to prevent detritus settling without directly impacting the flesh.

  • Chalices are frequently placed in higher light to enhance colour, but they are generally low to moderate light corals.

    Too much light can cause:


    • bleaching or washed-out fluorescence

    • tissue recession starting from edges or mouths

    • reduced polyp extension

    Sudden lighting changes (especially after shipping) are also a major stress trigger. They perform best with slow, controlled acclimation.

  • Chalice corals are often underestimated as “slow growers,” but many varieties are highly aggressive at night.

    Common mistakes include:


    • placing them close to other LPS or SPS

    • ignoring their long sweeper tentacles

    • not allowing space for encrusting expansion

    This can result in:


    • stinging damage to nearby corals

    • slow territorial expansion conflicts

    • long-term loss of neighbouring coral tissue

    They need clear buffer zones, especially along their growth edge.
