Favia sp. – "Fire & Ice" Frag

Characteristics:

• Type: Favia sp. (LPS stony coral)

• Variant: Fire & Ice

• Color: Distinctive half-and-half coloration: one side intensely luminous blue, the other side vibrant red to orange – an extremely rare and striking bicolor effect

• Structure: Compact, round-polyp Favia growth form with clearly delineated polyp chambers

• Light requirements: Medium; the blue and orange tones fluoresce particularly well under actinic lighting

• Flow: Light to moderate, to keep deposits away

Care instructions:
The Favia "Fire & Ice" is a robust LPS coral that prefers stable water parameters and medium lighting. Its strong two-tone contrasts are most intense under LED blue spectrum. Occasional feeding with fine LPS food promotes color density and growth. As with all Favias, care should be taken to maintain distance from other corals, as they defend themselves with nocturnal sweeper tentacles.

Special features:

• Rare true bicolor Favia: clear separation between blue and red/orange

• Very strong fluorescence and high contrast

• Dimensionally stable, easy-to-care-for LPS

• Ideal as a colorful highlight in the middle to lower reef area
