Hi! A couple days ago I bought 2 chalice corals from a reputable online shop, however I think the package might've been outside for too long as the water was pretty cold to the touch when I acclimated the frags.

The first chalice looks pretty dire, I can see a lot of the bone structure, the second one looks ok, not great.
