Some of the of the popular chalice corals come from the Family Pectiniidae, which is currently composed of the following genera Echinophyllia, Mycedium, Oxypora, Pectinia, Physophyllia and Echinomorpha. The chalice coral is also known as scroll, elephant nose, peacock, lettuce, plate, antler, palm, and hibiscus coral. Chalice corals are not a single species or from a single genus or family. The term chalice is used to refer to a growth form that resembles a cup or chalice. Many different species of this coral are found within different genera and even different families display this growth form. The reason for their higher price is their hypnotic beauty, rarity and the fact that they grow relatively slow. Their slow, moderate growth also makes them a less than ideal candidate for aquaculture. We disagree as ours grow relatively fast and are fairly hardy which will do well in an established stable reef aquarium. We grow ours with MH lighting and high flow, and will never sell a 1″ frag for a $1000+…Thats just outrageous, our frags are are a bit more common to less than common (rare) and reasonably priced.
