The Ultra Color Chalice Coral is a slow-growing species that can exhibit both an encrusting habit when placed near aquarium glass and a plating habit when housed in open areas. However, keep in mind that it can develop sweeper tentacles that may harm more docile corals and invertebrates. We recommend providing sufficient space between the Ultra Color Chalice Coral and other corals due to its semi-aggressive temperament.
Feeding the Ultra Color Chalice Coral is mostly done at night, though it is not necessary for its survival. However, it can benefit from small pieces of meaty marine food, such as baby brine shrimp or CYCLOP-EEZE®, as well as foods specifically designed for filter-feeding invertebrates. Additionally, ensuring a healthy water column by adding calcium, strontium, and other trace elements contributes to its overall well-being.
