🧬 Overview
The “Bugatti” Chalice is a true signature coral, built for collectors who want maximum colour complexity and visual impact. This morph combines a rich red base with layered blue and green patterns, creating depth and movement across the surface of the coral.
The bright yellow mouth acts as a focal point, glowing intensely and tying the entire colour palette together. Under blue spectrum lighting, the fluorescence becomes extreme, giving the coral a vivid, almost electric presence in the reef.
With its encrusting growth pattern and expanding plates, this chalice will gradually spread and increase in visual dominance, making it a long-term showpiece.
🧾 WYSIWYG / Signature Coral
You will receive the exact specimen shown, selected for colour balance, contrast, and pattern definition.
Selected for:
• Multi-colour signature pattern (red, blue, green)
• Bright yellow mouth contrast
• Extreme fluorescence under actinic lighting
• High-end collector chalice morph
• Strong encrusting growth potential
🍽️ Care & Feeding
Chalice corals benefit from photosynthesis and targeted feeding.
Recommended feeding occasionally:
• Mysis shrimp or finely chopped meaty foods
• Reef roids or similar coral foods
• Night-time feeding for best response
📈 Optimal Parameters
Parameter | Ideal Range
Alkalinity (dKH) | 7.5–8.5
Calcium (Ca) | 420–450 ppm
Magnesium (Mg) | 1300–1400 ppm
Nitrate (NO₃) | 5–15 ppm
Phosphate (PO₄) | 0.03–0.10 ppm
📍 Placement
Place in a low-light, low-flow area to preserve colour intensity and avoid tissue stress. Allow space from other corals due to sweeper tentacles, especially at night.
