Not sure what this came in as (probably Chalice), or what it is.




Some of the names above may not be correct, so please do not use this as an identification guide. It is an example of what used to come in the Australia tanked boxes. Sometimes things like Oulophyllia, Montastrea, Diplostrea, etc., come in as Favites, for instance. These are guesses at a glance, not formal identifications. If it is thin and flat they call it Chalice. A half dozen different genera may be sent as such, including Montiporas, Merulina, Leptoseris, Echinopora, Echinophyllia, or anything else they find in that growth form.
