Something Rare and special coming tom :P

I have waited a few weeks to get these coral cause of my move and tank disaster but thanks to Blackraven being very generious in holding 2 coral for me i will have them in my stable system tomorrow one is a Rare Chalice:trampolin should be able to ID also and the other is Alston's Superman Montipora nothing to speical there but it will be a nice add. Pictures will be up when I get them in

Where should these be placed in my tank? here is a FTS



Thanks 8)

 

I would place both low on the rocks and chalice should be somewhat shaded.

 

Thanks 2in10

 

The Chalice (the picture sucks but its blueish and it gets darker towards the eye with lime greenish yellow ring and bright yellow eye) I think it looks close to a grape ape water melon, but i could be way off will upload more pix in a few days when its fully settled.



The Superman Monti

Any special care i need to take for these?

 

Nice score, I really like the Superman Montipora.

 

Thank you corailline I picked them up from Blackraven at a amazing price. Cant wait for the Chalice to color up.

 

I'm glad you like the pieces!

As for placement, the superman monti was within about 6 inches of my light (6xT5), so I would actually start it up highish. It's very used to being bombarded with light. The chalice should be low and a bit shaded, as said earlier.

 

Okay thanks again ill move the monti up I have it on the right of my tank about half way up and the chalice is in the middle behind my clam.

 

Just for reference, the monti you can see on the top of the middle rock. The chalice was down on the right, in the hole between the pearl bubble, and coco worm, and under the other chalice.

 

Very nice adds, congrats
