Overview
The “Miami Hurricane Chalice” is a storm of vibrant colors, featuring dynamic swirls of teal and orange with bright yellow accents that create an electrifying visual impact. At 15 cm in diameter, this chalice coral brings tropical energy and unmatched vibrancy to any reef aquarium.

Hailing from the deeper reefs of the Indo-Pacific, the Miami Hurricane Chalice thrives under low to moderate lighting and gentle water flow, conditions that emphasize its intricate patterns and radiant coloration. Its semi-aggressive temperament requires adequate spacing to avoid interference with neighboring corals.

Photosynthetic zooxanthellae provide the majority of its nutritional needs, but this coral benefits from periodic feedings of finely minced meaty foods like mysis shrimp or plankton to enhance growth and amplify its vivid colors.

To maintain its stormy brilliance, stable water parameters are a must. Balanced levels of calcium, magnesium, and alkalinity support robust skeletal growth, while low nitrate and phosphate levels help prevent unwanted algae that could dull its appearance.

The Miami Hurricane Chalice is supplied unmounted, ready to be positioned in the perfect spot to showcase its dynamic blend of colors and textures. Approximate size: 15 cm in diameter.
