Post Your Awesome Favia Here!

yoshiod9 · 02-07-2005, 01:07 PM

since most other sp. had their 'special' place, i decided my favia's needed a place to not feel left out just because they aren't a. lordhowensis or an sps. with that being said, post your favia pics!

i'll start off with one of my red green(i just fragged the mother colony two night ago) frags and then you can all witness the rarest color morph i have ever laid my eye on. the purple and green favia. love them and cherish them.

I can't follow up with anything near as cool as yours, I haven't started doing any real favia hunting yet, but here is my orange with white stripes and green mouth favia:

Spooda420 · 02-07-2005, 06:58 PM

sweet pic mike I dig the color and the over shape... NICE!!

Mufflerguy · 02-07-2005, 07:32 PM

Heres one I got last week, pretty cool.

AJinNY · 02-07-2005, 07:39 PM

Muffler thats GORGEOUS. What a great piece. I think I saw that on one of the online websites...is that where u got it? I noticed it was marked "SOLD".

Great piece!

Beautiful corals!

Mufflerguy · 02-07-2005, 08:02 PM

Yup, killercorals.com.
Great guy, & even sent a freebie too!!!

AJinNY · 02-07-2005, 08:11 PM

what freebee did u get?

Im wary about online buying but I have to admit Im seeing some nice pieces. Maybe I'll give it a try.

mps9506 · 02-07-2005, 08:45 PM

AJ, I promise ya, you won't go wrong buying from any of our sponsers, check out sharkys, Premium aquatics, Mary at Sea Crop, Atlantis and Exquisite Corals just joined up. When Clams and Corals Direct.com are up and running they will be good to check out also. You shouldn't have to worry about ordering from any of those folks.
I've also personally had good experiences with Dr Mac, Reefermadness, Phishy Buisness and reeffarmers.
BTW, I think a red eye'd favia just might be my next purchase, after my next set of LE's come in...

va_reefman · 02-07-2005, 09:20 PM

Matt, very nice piece there. If you have the piece in medium light then make sure you move it down to a very low light or you won't be able to keep that color contrast. It happened to a frag I cut for my friend before.

Thanks for the advice John, It just started to extend its feeder tentacles tonight...They look transparent purple under my lights! I think it looks almost as good as my lords!

Can Favites play?

Favites chinensis

yoshiod9 · 02-08-2005, 02:30 AM

i suppose favites should be allowed as well, huh, randy?

atlantis is one of our sponsors and a dfs(distant fish store...though anything within 100 miles i consider local). they have and never will disappoint! awesome people(ming and joleen) with awesome customer service. if you guys are ever in the bay area...check them out!

MaryHM · 02-08-2005, 10:13 AM

Here's a really nice one we got for SeaCrop from the Solomon Islands last week. Nice blue tones to it:

Here's one we had on our wholesale site this week- Odd combination of red centers and lavender body.

By the way, RandyO- that's a favia you have, not a favites.
