I would say Chalice is on the slower side growth wise.

In my very limited experience, I had a piece that did literally nothing for over a year. I moved it to a spot so it was on a 45 deg angle and it started growing.

So is this to say it's because of the angle? Lighting and flow are certainly different in this new spot too....

I've been told medium flow, medium light, and put on an angle. Worked for me , YMMV

The thing about Chalices is that the wide selection of things called chalices belongs to about ten genera so there is a lot of variation in what we are talking about. Some are slow as hell and some grow pretty well. I like the ones that grow slow, not everyone and their dog has four of them. And because they grow slow you don't have to worry about them climbing all over each other all the time. That said, I think that if you find the sweet spot they can speed up a bit. Feeding helps too methinks.

Got a picture?
