I am starting to get into LE Chalices, and I could really use some guidance regarding care. Could we start a thread listing care guidelines for LE chalices taken from real owner experience? I see some guides on Seller's websites, but real owner experience is better, IME. Maybe something that answers:

Name of LE Chalice

Placement in the tank.

Best lighting. Shade or sun?

Feeding. What types of food, if any?

What kind of water movement does the chalice like?

Growth rates.

Plus any other information that could help someone with that particular chalice.

Thanks.
Dave

I have my mummy eye in shaded light on the side of the tank with pretty good flow and it's growing at an incredible rate and the color is awesome. I do feed it mysis shrimp once a week.

My desert sunset chalice is right beside it and it's growing pretty fast too but not nearly as fast as the mummy eye. I also feed it mysis shrimp once a week.

My alien eye chalice is on the sandbed in high light in the middle of the tank and it's got low flow. I don't feed it as i have never seen it's feeders and it's growing good also.
