Its corallites, which house individual polyps, share common walls, creating a textured, brain-like appearance. With its potential for vibrant reds, oranges, and greens, this coral can become a dynamic focal point in a well-maintained reef aquarium, displaying captivating colours especially under blue actinic lighting.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Care Level<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Beginner. Favites corals are known for their hardiness and adaptability, making them an excellent choice for those new to the reef-keeping hobby. They are forgiving of minor fluctuations in water parameters but thrive best in stable conditions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tank Essentials<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A minimum tank size of 75 litres (20 gallons) is recommended. Maintain stable water parameters with a pH between 8.1-8.4, alkalinity of 8-12 dKH, and a temperature range of 24-27\u00b0C (75-81\u00b0F). Moderate, indirect water flow is crucial to keep the coral clean without causing stress.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Diet<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As a mixotrophic coral, Favites benefits from both light and targeted feeding. Supplement with meaty foods like Mysis shrimp or finely chopped marine foods a few times per week to encourage optimal growth and colouration.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why Buy From Us<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>At Corais de Vidro, we are dedicated to providing healthy, vibrant marine life.
