This HUGE red Favia will certainly be a show piece in your reef tank.

The Favia and Favites are very similar and share some of the same characteristics.  Favia have distinct separations beween corallites where favites share corallite walls. They are aggressive, expanding their sweeper tentacles at night well beyond the base. They are a backwater/lagoon corals and can live where no other corals do or will, because of their adaptability to less than ideal water conditions. In fact the water in our tanks is usually much better than where they come from. This trait makes them the perfect candidate for the beginner hobbyist.  They like moderate light and water movement
