Help with this please

[Lariat]

Sorry about the crappy iPhone pic idk where I got this I've had it for a while now. What is it? And how do I get it to grow faster? Thanks for any help

I know it didn't like high light it started to bleach so I moved it into some shadows the color has come back nice but it's not spreading any

Any chance of a pic under white light?

I think it's a favia but I'm not sure

Looks like dragon soul favia. I keep mine on the sandbed. Give it time, it should grow. Low flow, low to medium light.

[ReeferMaddness843]

Yup, I agree. Dragon soul favia.

 

[Lariat]

That's exciting I wanted one of those

 

[ReeferMaddness843]

And now you're the proud owner of one. Lol.

 

[Lariat]

Lol are there any tricks to getting it to spread? Should it be on a rock or in the sand? Should I feed it?

 

[ReeferMaddness843]

I'd say mount to a rock in Sandbed to allow it to grow, encrust, and expand. I'm working with my first favia at the moment to see. So far, still working to encrust the plug. Mines a "skittle bomb favia" so really hoping to see some growth out of it.

Nice it'll get a rock tomorrow thanks

 

[Lariat]

Good luck with the skittle bomb. Post some pics [emoji16]

I can't get a good shot of it to save my life. Lol. I have the original photo from the seller when I bought it. Big shout out to Joey at Joe Knows Reefs for this piece. (His photo not mine) I'll try and get a current pic in my tank tomorrow as well to show how shotty my photo skills are. Lol
This is the actual wysiwyg photo from sale:

That looks great I love the colors

Thanks! The Reds starting to spread out a bit more and the green and yellows are super bright under actinic. Almost glows.
