it looks good to me I mean you may just have another frag if anything.

I agree looks fine. A little damage like that should heal without issue. Its a good size piece do even better! I would notify the seller but with some TLC, should be fine.

Should be no worries. I have seen plenty come in like that, and if the coral is otherwise healthy, it will heal over that in a couple of weeks tops.

i agree. Nice pick up. I have one just like it started 1", it is now ~ 6" round. Be careful, like many chalices, at night the stingers come out and can harm other corals within its reach.

should be fine. I just fragged this chalice so if you loose it i'll have a piece for you.

Purchased it off another reefer on the west coast. It is a cornbred cotton candy colony.
