ID chalice please

[Cherim7]

Got this one a few days ago

 

[Cherim7]

Bump

Not sure, but I really like the pink eyes.

I'd say Miami hurricane but the bumps looks different

this is mine from two years ago

 

[Cherim7]

Mmm. Does look close to it

I have this exact chalice. Mine is with 6-8 pink eyes. I believe it's Echinophyllia Echinata. Pretty sure it was advertised as "orange and blue Australian chalice", or in other words, they didn't know either. Being that both of our frags are very small I'm having trouble with the ID, but this is what my best guess is right now.

I think this is more toothy than Miami hurricane, and also lacks any neon green. Under atinics all I can see are shades of blue and pink.

I will take a couple when I get home. I'll get both natural light and atinic light. I was going through my pictures and I was suprised to find I didn't have a good picture of it.

Sorry I can't get the quality pictures, like the OP has. I'm 98% sure they are the same species tho :), and I'm "pretty" sure It's Echinophyllia Echinata, but I am not an expert. It be really cool if it was Echinomorpha nishihirai chalice, but I'm not certain as that species is the only known solitary coralite species in the Pectinidae family but it looks a lot like it. The big differences to look for are the coralite growth patterns, and colors...

Experts pls check that.
