Tyree golden eye chalice?

 

[PaReeferJ]

Yeah chalice for sure. Looks like my stunner did when I had low nutrients in the tank. It turn a tan/pink

 

[meir]

I was away for a week when I bought it so it hasn't had light for a few days

 

[PaReeferJ]

Does it look like this?

 

[meir]

Yeah y

 

[PaReeferJ]

Then it's a stunner chalice

 

[meir]

The polyps are yellow not green

 

[meir]

Are chalices like reg Monti caps where they take over whole pieces of rock or r they like a coral that keeps to it self @PaReeferJ

 

[MaddyP]

I agree with @PaReeferJ , that appears to be a Hollywood stunner chalice. It's most definitely not a monti. They grow in a similar fashion but are much more irritating than monti's as chalices have a "sweeper" tentacle for catching prey (and killing other close corals).

 

[meir]

But they incrust on rocks and plate out right?
