Sometimes overlooked, often forgotten, but beautiful, hardy, huge variety of colors, not demanding of light levels or perfect parameters.....

Have you ever noticed that the coloring on certain types of favia reduces a little bit while it's growing a carpet down from a frag etc? I always chalked this up to the fact that the tissue is stretching. Maybe I'm wrong.

I don't think it's tissue stretching, it's that the new tissue is radidly growing and often a brighter color that the rest of the coral.
