Favia - Green & Red Colony

Bright, hardy, and beautifully textured, the Favia Coral is a classic LPS coral perfect for both beginners and experienced reef hobbyists. Known for its distinctive round “brain-like” polyps and vibrant colours (green, red, orange, purple, and mixed fluorescent patterns), it adds stunning contrast and movement to any reef tank. Slow-growing and easy to care for, Favia adapts well to a wide range of lighting and tank conditions.

This coral is photosynthetic but will show improved colour and growth with occasional feeding of coral foods or meaty particles. It extends feeding tentacles at night and has moderate stinging ability, so allow space between neighbouring corals.
