Ass Fungus Favia Coral

Ass Fungus Favia Coral - Care Requirements

Ass Fungus Favia Coral is a Favia-type brain large-polyp stony coral. This WYSIWYG Favia coral is an LPS coral suited to reef keepers seeking a distinct brain-coral form with detailed polyp patterning. Its moderate care needs center on measured placement, indirect flow, and stable conditions.

This is a WYSIWYG coral, meaning the coral shown in the photo is the exact piece you will receive.

Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Low to moderate lighting
• Flow: Moderate indirect flow
• Placement: Lower to middle reef areas
• Temperament: Aggressive
• Care Level: Moderate

Lighting

Use low to moderate lighting. Start with gentler exposure and acclimate gradually to avoid sudden changes in intensity.

Flow

Provide moderate indirect flow. Water movement should keep the coral clear of settled debris without blasting its fleshy tissue with strong direct current.

Placement

Place it in the lower to middle reef areas. Allow time to adjust after introduction, and avoid repeatedly moving it or making abrupt lighting changes.

Temperament

Give this aggressive coral ample space from neighboring corals. Nighttime sweeper or feeding tentacles can reach nearby specimens, so leave room for their extension.

Feeding

Feeding is optional, but occasional small meaty foods may be offered. Target feed gently when feeding tentacles are visible and avoid overfeeding.

General Care

Maintain stable conditions and make changes gradually. Observe tissue response, debris accumulation, and nearby coral spacing, then adjust flow or placement carefully rather than making frequent major changes.

Allow steady acclimation and adequate spacing for reliable long-term placement.
