wow no one can id this chalice not even a guess
lol, I gave you that chalice bug. Problem is once it bites you....your done for! I am not sure if it is a known chalice, or one that could be a look-a-like, but it looks like a teal base with red coralites and eyes?

Also, how long have you had it as most chalice change colors and paterns based on the type of conditions that it was in. I have found that it usually takes about a month for the chalice to completely conform to its new environment. I have a couple chalices that were dog $h1T, but once they acclimated to there newer surroundings (My tank) they colored up much different than it was originally.

If I were you I would hold off on trying to ID it until it has been settled for a month or so. Make sure to put it in medium to low light or under and overhang and you will get the best coloration out of it.
