So I met the nicest guy in the world a few days ago, and he was getting out of the hobby. I went for one shroom, I left with all kinds of stuff, including these three Favias that I can't recall the names of. I was asking for way to many names that day to be able to remember everything, and I've never really been in to Favias. These deals were just too good to pass upl!

Anyways, I know that this first one is a Tyree, I just can't remember which. I think I know, but would like confirmation.

I could definitely be wrong on this one, but I think this one is a Tyree also.

Maybe I need to just move these photos to the favia show off thread...I bet people browsing that can give me some names :tongue:
 
Dtech,

You think the first one is MIAs Pot of Gold? I can see how it looks like the MIA, but I could swear he said that one was a Tyree. After looking at pictures, I think it is the Babys' Breath.

That second one is like no Christmas Favia I've ever seen. ;)

I'll try to get a better picture of that 3rd one uploaded later today. It looks different than the Baby's Breath.

I appreciate the input. Anybody else have any ideas?
 
I have both and the color patterns are the same. I will take picks of my frags once the lights kick on tomorrow. But more pics the better.
 
Awesome, I'd love to see pics of yours for comparison.

My lights were off by the time I got home from work tonight, but here are two more pics I already had. It's hard to tell with this picture and the shadow, but this piece with the blueish/grey base and pink eyes actually has a growth rim of gold/yellow eyes. It's the pink though that really stands out, even from across the room.



One more of the first one, which I'm pretty sure is the Baby's Breath.
 
Yes! After reading that, you've jogged my memory. Thank you very much!

Now I just need the paradise pimpin favia and I'll be a happy man :)

The left one is a MIA both the frags are growing like weeds under the LEDs but slightly light in color. I going to move them soon into the frag tank where they'll be lower and will color up like the mother colonies.
 
Err..I spoke too fast. I googled Mystic Grape Favia, and the pictures I'm seeing don't look like mine. I need to get a better picture of it uploaded.

I appreciate the help guys! Keep it coming! Only one more! :)

Yeah, I'm a big fan of T5s for LPS tanks. I think I get the best colors that way. Though, I'll admit, I've never personally tried LEDs, just seen them on others' tanks.
