Chalice corals, belonging to the family Pectiniidae, are a highly sought-after group of large polyp stony corals (LPS) known for their striking appearance and vibrant colors. These corals exhibit a variety of growth forms, including encrusting, plating, and cup-shaped structures, which contribute to their unique and eye-catching look. Chalice corals are available in a wide spectrum of colors, including intense blues, purples, pinks, oranges, and greens, often with intricate patterns and contrasting edges.

Native to the Indo-Pacific region, chalice corals inhabit a range of reef environments, from shallow waters to deeper reef slopes. In an aquarium setting, they require moderate to high lighting and moderate water flow to mimic their natural habitat. Stable water parameters are crucial for their health, with an optimal temperature range of 72-78°F, a pH of 8.1-8.4, and a calcium level of 400-450 ppm.

Chalice corals are relatively hardy but can be sensitive to changes in water quality and environmental conditions. They are generally suitable for both beginner and experienced aquarists who can maintain consistent water parameters. Regular monitoring and maintenance of alkalinity, calcium, and magnesium levels, along with diligent water changes and filtration, are important for their well-being.

These corals rely on the symbiotic zooxanthellae algae within their tissues for the majority of their nutritional needs through photosynthesis. They can also benefit from supplemental feedings of small meaty foods, such as brine shrimp or mysis shrimp, and coral-specific foods, which can enhance their coloration and growth.

Chalice corals can exhibit sweeper tentacles, which they use for defense and capturing food. These tentacles can extend several inches from the coral and can sting nearby corals, so it's important to provide adequate space between chalice corals and other corals in the aquarium to prevent aggression.

With proper care, chalice corals can become a stunning centerpiece in a reef aquarium. Their vibrant colors, intricate patterns, and diverse growth forms add a dynamic and visually appealing element to the underwater landscape, making them a favorite among coral enthusiasts

This is a big ball.
Larger than I thought but still a great toy for a heavy chew pup, easy to toss and won't go under funiture. She has the same ball in a 5 inch size so I know it's quality and will last. Can't wait for Summer, will make a great yard ball.

Second one, first one lasted a good while
We leave it outside in the weather with solid results for our backyard dog, and the dog loves this thing. It's our go to toy for her, ... perfect for kick to fetch, tug of war, hide in the shirt, bump the human leg when it is wet, etc. ;) The first one we used and used and finally it started to show too much weathering, mildew, and finally breaking after like 1.5 years... we have extremely hot and wet weather here. When new though, these balls take a pounding. Our 50 pound dog can play tug of war to the extent we can pick her up while she holds onto the ball with her teeth. The ball doesn't flinch and the dog loves it. Kicking it is fun because you can give it a wallop and it won't go over the fence since the design absorbs a fair bit of the kick energy, but it is still enough for an adult or teen to send it about 1/4 an acre away. What else... oh the dog has a funny habit of finding the one spot that isn't an empty pentagon... as in the plastic is filled in there... and she likes to bit on that part especially during tug of war. I should also mention our dog literally breaks apart and sometimes eats sticks and twigs in the yard, can't be healthy, so a nice diversion is this ball that she will chew on once in a while without destroying it.

Absolutely love this brand of ball for my dog
I end up replacing these every couple years, yep that's right, years. My border collie will grab this ball in his mouth and then kick another ball around. Don't know why he has to have something in his mouth to play soccer, but he is unique. He managed to tear one of these up when he was in his teething stage, but it took him months, and I took it away as soon as he managed to remove a piece of it. Otherwise, we usually lose these much more often than them getting destroyed through constant chewing, and I suspect heavy weathering outside for an extended period of time. Nowadays he doesn't chew on rubber nearly that often, he has developed his own picky preferences. This ball is his must have for playing around. He loves to drop it down the stairs and play fetch with himself. It's easy for him to grab, it isn't heavy so we don't worry about furnishing, walls, or family members when he is tossing it around. It is much more durable than most, with the exception of really heavy chewers/teething, even then it held up for a long time. As long as you are careful to remove it if they manage to chew through I would even try it out with teething puppies. The lawnmower is also this balls nemesis, it loses every time. If only I could convince the dog that he needs to stop sacrificing toys to the lawnmower :-)

Will Last!!!
My Saban is a black lab/pittie mix and is a very aggressive chewer with the bulldog jaws. I had bought the large ball for him and to be honest I didn't think it would be as big as it is or as heavy 😂😂😂!!! It's made of a very durable plastic and is holding up extremely well to his chewing on it!!! I'll be honest and say that unless you're using it outside and have some really good muscles in your arm that I would recommend buying this in the smaller size!!!! I normally play with him inside with his toys when the weather isn't good for going outside, but I don't throw this one inside because #1 it's so heavy and big that I can't throw it very good and # if I was to play with it inside I'm afraid the weight of it would break something!!! I would say that this is a great quality and very durable, but I wouldn't buy the large one again!!! I would definitely recommend this brand in a smaller size ball 👌 😊😊
