Red Favites Hard Coral Frag Favites Sp
Overview:
Favites corals, commonly known as Brain Corals, are hard, stony corals with distinctive maze-like patterns on their surface. Their colorful ridges and valleys come in various shades of green, red, yellow, and brown, making them an eye-catching addition to reef tanks. Known for their durability and slow growth, Favites corals add a structural, architectural element to your reef setup.
Origin:
Found across the Indo-Pacific region, Favites corals inhabit shallow reef environments and thrive in areas with moderate water flow and stable lighting conditions.
Experience Level:
Intermediate. Favites corals are relatively hardy but require stable water conditions and careful placement in the tank to avoid damage to other corals. With the right care, they are moderately easy to keep, making them suitable for hobbyists with some reef-keeping experience.
Water Parameters:
- Temperature: 72-78°F (22-26°C)
- pH: 8.1-8.4
- Salinity: 1.023-1.025
- Lighting: Moderate
- Water Flow: Moderate
Due to their semi-aggressive nature, Favites corals should be placed away from more delicate species, as they can extend sweeper tentacles. They thrive in stable, established reef systems.
