Are chalice corals okay for a newb?

Or are they best left for those "more experienced" with LPS corals?
Eyeing up a Watermelon Chalice Coral I found from a reputable seller... Looks PRETTY :hmm3:

LiveAquaria has their care level listed as "moderate" so I'm not totally sure if I should go for it or not :p
 
As long as your parameters are good, I've got three in my tank and I'm fairly new as well. I've found the type with longer tentacles you can see seem to be about the same care as acans, fairly easy, the other two in my tank I've never seen any feeders and seem a bit more difficult in terms of care but just an observation on my end.
