albertthiel Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 The chalice and the Montopora are interacting and the Montipora is losing. Chalice is hitting it with sweepers at night. Tissue damage at bottom of picture. Pity ... can you move the Cbalice or is not possible. Friend of mine took the rock out and on which one was encrusted and with a band saw cut it so the could move the offending coral (not a Chalice though), not easy to do I would say but for him it worked.

chrssprngs Posted September 1, 2012 Author Share Posted September 1, 2012 Neither can be moved without lots of breakage. Thinking that maybe I can diminish the contact by manipulating the flow in the tank. Link to comment

chrssprngs Posted September 1, 2012 Author Share Posted September 1, 2012 Some of them are a good 3 inches. Link to comment
albertthiel Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Some of them are a good 3 inches. Yes and if like you say you change the flow maybe they will extend in the other direction and solve any further damage ( I hope for you ) Link to comment
Spirofucci Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Wow, cool pic of that monti, its purdy! I had no idea that a chalice has 3" stingers! Is it possible to just break off that bottom piece on the monti? Link to comment
chrssprngs Posted September 2, 2012 Author Share Posted September 2, 2012 That is definitely a possibility. Link to comment

I have it sitting in my Capricornis higher in the tank. You mean the the Pistol knocked it over and in between rocks ... wow .. guess it was a small one right (not a Zeph type one Link to comment
chrssprngs Posted September 4, 2012 Author Share Posted September 4, 2012 No. I mean took up into his tunnels. I had it on the sandbed. This morning it was gone. Had to move all the Zoanthids and Palys, one of the Acan colonies and two pieces of liverock. Unlike the Zoanthids that he stole on two other occasions, I was able to find the clam. I have him on the rock now. I have been having trouble finding a good spot for him. Link to comment

chrssprngs Posted September 8, 2012 Author Share Posted September 8, 2012 Rearranging the front middle. To much fighting going on in the tank. Had to move the Scoly. It was attacking the chalice. The anemone is getting too big. Link to comment
