I put a down payment on this chalice today at the LFS. The store owner got this particular Chalice from a local, getting out of the hobby. He also had about 10 others from the same tank but they were way too pricey for me. Insane collection though. Anyone seen this chalice before?

I believe to be some sort of Enchinophyllia Aspera as well, but without seeing more pics it's hard to say...nice though! very big colony!!

When I get the piece next Thursday I will post more pics. The pic above was in the pet store and was taken on my phone, I tried to get a surface shot but the flow was too much. Its a nice size, about 6 inches by 4.5 inches. The store owners had it for awhile also, as you can see in the pic its encrusted onto the eggcrate. Should be a fun one to get out of the tank.
