This hardy LPS coral brings unique patterns and vibrant hues to any healthy aquarium.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Overview<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Space Monkey Favia, a variety of brain or moon coral, displays a spectacular blend of colors, often featuring contrasting eyes and walls in striking combinations of green, blue, and orange. Growing in massive, encrusting, or dome-shaped colonies, its distinct corallites create an intricate, maze-like texture. While generally peaceful during the day, its polyps extend at night, showcasing delicate feeder tentacles and potentially long sweeper tentacles, adding dynamic nocturnal activity to your reef.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Care Level<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Considered a beginner to moderate LPS coral, the Space Monkey Favia is relatively hardy once acclimated to a stable reef environment. It exhibits a moderately aggressive temperament due to its sweeper tentacles, which can sting neighboring corals. Ensure adequate spacing (at least 5-10 cm) from other corals to prevent conflict and ensure its long-term health.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tank Essentials<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A minimum aquarium size of 115 litres is recommended for a thriving Space Monkey Favia, with larger tanks (190+ litres) ideal for long-term growth and stability. Maintain stable water parameters: a temperature range of 24-28\u00b0C, pH 8.1-8.4, and salinity 1.024-1.026 SG. Provide moderate, indirect water flow and low to moderate lighting (75-150 PAR) for optimal coloration and health.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Diet<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While photosynthetic, the Space Monkey Favia greatly benefits from supplemental feeding 2-3 times per week. Offer small meaty foods such as mysis shrimp, brine shrimp, finely chopped marine foods, or specialized LPS coral foods, preferably target-fed when polyps are extended at night.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why Buy From Us<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When you buy Space Monkey Favia online from Corais de Vidro, you receive healthy, aquacultured corals acclimated for home aquariums.
