Easter Egg Favia Coral

Easter Egg Favia Coral - Care Requirements

Easter Egg Favia Coral is a Favia-type brain large-polyp stony coral. This WYSIWYG Favia offers the substantial, patterned appearance associated with Favia-type brain corals. Its moderate care needs suit reef keepers prepared to provide stable conditions, measured placement, and room from neighboring corals.

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

Provide low to moderate lighting. Begin with gentler exposure and acclimate gradually to avoid abrupt changes in intensity.

Flow

Use moderate indirect flow. Water movement should keep the coral clear without directing a strong stream onto its fleshy tissue.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Allow time to settle after placement rather than repeatedly moving it to chase a different light or flow level.

Temperament

Give it generous spacing from nearby corals. This aggressive LPS coral can extend nighttime sweeper or feeding tentacles, which may sting neighboring specimens.

Feeding

Feeding is optional, but occasional small meaty foods can be offered when feeding tentacles are visible. Avoid overfeeding and remove excess food.

General Care

Maintain stable aquarium conditions and make changes gradually. Observe tissue response, polyp extension, and nearby coral spacing, especially after adjustments to lighting, flow, or placement. Consistency is preferable to frequent changes in intensity or location.

Acclimate patiently, maintain spacing, and let stable conditions guide long-term care.
