Favia spp. (Premium) Frag is a cultured large polyp stony (LPS) coral prized for its distinctive, rounded corallites and vibrant colours. As a premium frag grown under controlled conditions, it offers aquarists a reliable and healthy specimen for their marine reef tanks.
Lighting Requirements: Moderate lighting is ideal for Favia spp., such as LED or T5 fixtures providing a PAR range of approximately 50-150. Avoid intense direct light to prevent bleaching.
Water Flow: Moderate, indirect water flow is recommended to ensure adequate nutrient delivery while preventing tissue damage.
Placement: Position this coral on stable rockwork in the middle to lower regions of the aquarium. Allow sufficient space between neighbouring corals to accommodate its fleshy polyps and prevent aggression.
Care Level: Suitable for intermediate hobbyists due to its moderate care requirements and resilience.
Diet: While photosynthetic, Favia spp. benefit from occasional feeding of meaty foods such as brine shrimp, mysis shrimp, or specialised coral foods to promote growth and vibrancy.
Reef Compatibility: Yes, with adequate spacing. Favia corals possess sweeper tentacles that can sting nearby corals, so maintain appropriate distances.
Origin: Not Provided – cultured in controlled aquaculture facilities.
Maximum Size: Varies depending on tank conditions; typically grows to several centimetres in diameter per polyp.
Regular monitoring of water parameters, including stable calcium, alkalinity, and magnesium levels, will support healthy growth. This premium frag is an excellent addition to a mixed LPS coral reef setup, offering both aesthetic appeal and manageable husbandry.
