Chalice Coral Care Tips

Instant Set Glue Spray (affiliate link) - amzn.to/2E2bTR3
Chalice corals represent a large group of wildly disparate corals that share little in common past their flat, plate-forming appearance. There are over ten Genera of corals that are all grouped together and described as Chalices. Coming up with general care tips is tough for chalices because of how different some of the corals are from one another. For each of the recommendations bear in mind that they are merely guidelines that will give you a starting point to experiment with. My goal is to suggest parameters that will give the most kinds of chalices the best chance of survival.

Once again .....UNDISPUTED CHAMP OF Marine Aquarium WORLD !! Thank you Than

[@ReefDork]

I don't know which I love more: your corals or your camera 😍

[@cowabungareefer7094]

Love these videos! The macro shots, the colorations of your corals, and the information are all great 👍

[@Reefgrrl]

I love the spotlights! I learned a lot of valuable info from this particular one, because I have about 10 different chalices and I got a sense from this, of things I could do to improve their environment. Thank you! 👍🏻👍🏻

[@braveheartreefer525]

Great video Than packed with great information from start to finish

[@saxon3980]

Without a doubt you are the best resource for reef keepers, and deserve far more subscribers. I find keeping reef tanks a soothing influence, and the way you present your content has the same affect😊

[@abitsalty7603]

This was right on time! Just got my first Chalice frag!!!

[@mitian]

Your videos and cinematography is out of this world. Thanks for making them I learn and really enjoy them a lot.

[@marcoherrera3002]

Than like always a step above and beyond, thank you 👍💪😎

[@Orybailey]

Every time I buy a new coral I always come to you about coral care. Your the best!

[@reconnaissance7372]

I love the Coral Spotlight playlist, I could re-watch these hundreds of times and it really helps me build my knowledge.

[@volteface69]

Magnifique, BRAVO !!! 👏👏👏

[@Sweeeetpeaches69]

Stellar video, Than. Keep it up

[@InfamousUber]

Watching chalice corals eat through timelapse vids is crazy to see. I still remember seeing it for the first time. Looked other worldly. P.s. That red trachy is amazing. Such eye candy

[@tidalgardens]

Time lapse feedings are one of my favorite things to capture.

[@TheGabrielberki]

Beautiful corals.

[@smokymtreefer8480]

Love these videos. 🤙

[@mitchellorchard2163]

[@JLards]

Excellent content Than!

[@malawimaya]

Thanks Than!👍

[@TF-Times]

Love the videos. I seem to have great luck with chalices, super hardy for me. Echinipora definitely can grow super fast. +1 on Hollywood stunner. Crazy long sweepers.

[@b_bogg]

I literally just ordered a green chalice and a joker favia from you guys and im stoked for them to arrive !

[@hillbillyreefer8996]

Excelent vídeo! I loved

[@tidalgardens]

Thanks Sunny, there will definitely be more coral species videos in the future.

[@TimeToReef]

Great videos ! Keep it up

[@AllegiancePressureWashing]

These are the most relaxing videos

[@tidalgardens]

I'm not gonna lie, having to watch my own videos to make sure there are no mistakes nearly puts me to sleep.

[@gabesreef]

Please dont stop making these spotlights, or floodlights wherever necessary.

[@gabesreef]

@@karennation3580 I always enjoy seeing you around here. Hope all is well

[@marconius1341]

Great video as always. I noticed my pink with blue polyps echinophyllia growing with this pinkish coloured edges. The new polyps grown however are pink and do not turn blue. Have you experienced this? Any advice?

[@IkanHiasLaut]

Very nice video shooting 😍

[@IkanHiasLaut]

Very nice chalice 😍😍

[@AnchorDownBoat]

I just got my very first chalice:)

[@KnarBurger]

I had a Hollywood stunner frag I cut that came off the plug three times and rode the current in the tank under the frag rack. Think we are good to go now lol but the last time it came off was three days later so not sure what kept happening.

[@ericj1500]

Hollywood stunner and mummy eye is the only 2 varieties of chalice that I have ever had but that was years ago.

[@stephenfloyd9900]

What are you cleaning tools with just rodi?

[@mikeleonard4244]

What are you cleaning your tools and saw with? Thanks

[@ELENTE_]

The music is perfect.. this is almost asmr.. if you talk just a bit lower.. you will attract people looking for new asmr videos.. this is great info btw!! Thank yoy

[@michaelisakov1108]

Is this a strictly entrusting coral?

[@filterdecay]

whats the name of the red/white one? at 5:25

[@frederickyang]

thank god, i live in indonesia where all these beauts are available 😌

[@michaelisakov1108]

Are these aggressive corals?

[@fuffoon]

Good one. I just traded some children for a box of chalice corals of various species. What color, the orange is on fire. At the store there were two pieces that nobody can identify. Not lobo, not acan but something similar but unkown.

[@mikeleonard4244]

What’s your favorite glue ? Thanks

[@theamjadjamousable]

what makes a chalice inflate ?

[@adamschaafsma5839]

I have been trying to figure out why my chalices won't grow. Colors are muted, or browned out. It's like they maintain and sometimes recede but never grow larger, have you seen this scenario?

[@xisotopex]

I have a hollywood stunner chalice that has turned white.... it is still alive, covered with little neon green eyes, but the entirety of its flesh is white.... its been this way for 3-4 months now.... any idea what this may be?

[@irvinthatwhitefk8]

I dipped one I purchased the other day now it’s brown is that normal?

[@MHoran86]

Love your videos but hoping in the future you can name and timestamp what corals your actually showing in the video, so that in the future if your carrying it I know what exactly to look for

[@gold3nrul311]

Echina like these corals

[@tidalgardens]

I see what you did there.

[@ElementEWFW]

Do you turn off the flow while feeding? If so for how long?

[@tidalgardens]

15 min

[@ElementEWFW]

Thanks so much!!

[@jasepoag8930]

8:25 Far left on the edge of the coral. That some kind of flat worm? IT MOVED.

[@tidalgardens]

I'm not sure. It looks like it could be a flatworm or a crustacean based on how it jittered.

[@arvinsanolin3110]

pls do each PAVONA and LEPTOSERIS corals too THANH I love these odd non mainstream Corals... STAY SAFE STAY HEALTHY STAY AWARE AND STAY RONA FREE EVERYONE!!

[@tidalgardens]

I've done videos on both. Pavona - kzbin.info/www/bejne/mp-phnWcp6-iedU and Leptoseris - kzbin.info/www/bejne/kKuwgKCLeNOgbtk

[@arvinsanolin3110]

@Tidal Gardens funny I just read this now ... as I've bought my first chalice a deep red and blue on, whenever I have a new coral I always make sure to refer to your vids first before undertaking husbandry of a particular coral!! Keep up the awesome work Thanh perhaps you can do a spotlight macroalgaes next!!

[@tonygoesham777]

My evidence is the title lol

[@dom_h]

I heard "any-kind-of-pora" 😂

[@jnava121]

Less light is good , i burnt mine easy

[@tidalgardens]

I am all about low light for 90% of corals in the hobby.

[@detroithammer8869]

wisdom unbond

[@victorleon2483]

Nothing tickles me more than Than pronouncing the “h” in every “w” word that contains one.

[@huckilt]

Anyone else cringe every time he said “GENERA” instead of genre? Lol jk jk.

[@tidalgardens]

Genera is plural of Genus. I'm not talking about films here.

[@huckilt]

Tidal Gardens I was jus joking around anyways but thanks for clearing that up I learn something new in reefing everyday! Always thought genre was jus a broad term for things that could be categorized together. Glad I said something and got a response. Otherwise I would prolly never have been informed otherwise. So please don’t take offense to my cracking wise.
