yeah I'm 90% sure that is exactly what it is. I have heard mixed stories about how well they play with Gonis, but I think you're right in that I should probably move it to be safe. Thanks for checking out the tank!
do you have a bigger tank chalice corals would get very big i am just wondering to make sure you have a place to move it to when it out grows that tank
I have another tank that I could move it to, but it is still considered a "pico" so it isnt very big. My expectation is that this guy is a pretty slow grower, and so in a year or two if it gets too big I can frag it up a bit, give a few frags away to friends and start the cycle anew.... That or it is a really good excuse to tell friends and family that I need another tank :P
@@ioaquatics if you maintain proper water parameters a chalice coral will grow fast my chalice got to a foot in a year and half it was 2 feet when it died due to a hurricane that hit my area and power was out for over a month
@@amatsuki5297 Wow thats crazy! You must have made yours pretty happy! What type of chalice was it? The vendor I bought it from told me it took two years for the parent chalice he fragged to get to the size of a small dessert plate. I guess we will see what happens!
I break out every now and again with hives on my hands from my tanks… it’s a cost of doing this hobby, I try to limit my contact with the water so it doesn’t get worse
You know you bring up what would probably be a best practice, but I also wonder how much it would really change things. I've never lost a coral with this method, but perhaps there are long-term affect im not attributing to it. That being said though, this was a frag swap where almost all of these corals came from different tanks with different water. unless I was to do a separate dip for each one, they would have been mixed with different water regardless. So given all that, I don't think it would have mattered... But good practice to think about.
Dude I love your videos and the editing is top tier. Surely you will get a lot of subs and views in no time. 🔥
Thank you!! I'm just excited that I can share the hobby and some of my humor with people on the internet :P
Nice bro. This weekend I am also going to a small coral show here in CO. I don't need coral but I might walk out with something...
that's how it always happens lol
That micro Goni could be a bernardpora and does not play nice with other gonis. Mine liked lower light and pretty low flow. Tank is looking great!👍

@@ioaquatics the chalice i had was the hollywood stunner i bought from WWC
Ahh a classic. I hear those can grow quite a bit too

🤣😂
Wrong always use the Water it comes in to add dipping solution then start adding your tank water to it
