Overview
The "Luminous Mint Blossom Chalice" is a rare gem among chalice corals, boasting a serene mint-green base adorned with striking yellow bubble-like accents. This harmonious blend of colors creates a calming yet vibrant presence, making it a true showpiece for reef aquariums.

Native to the Indo-Pacific, this coral thrives in low to moderate lighting and gentle water flow, which accentuate its subtle hues and unique bubble formations. As a semi-aggressive species, it requires adequate space to prevent overgrowth or stinging interactions with nearby corals.

Photosynthetic in nature, the Luminous Mint Blossom Chalice derives most of its nutrition from symbiotic zooxanthellae but benefits from supplemental feedings of finely minced meaty foods like rotifers or plankton. These feedings not only enhance its vibrant colors but also support robust growth.

Stable water conditions are crucial for maintaining this coral’s health and dazzling appearance. Balanced levels of calcium, magnesium, and alkalinity are vital for skeletal development, while low nitrate and phosphate levels prevent algae overgrowth and preserve its pristine coloration.

The Luminous Mint Blossom Chalice is mounted on a ceramic plug for easy placement, allowing you to showcase its vibrant beauty effortlessly. Approximate purchase size: 10 to 15 cm.
