Certainly some great Favia shown on the last few pics & posts. Glad to see some life left on this old thread! And even better, more beautiful Favia/Favites still around!

I've seen a few similar to that in the Bay area here in cali, but alas Im at a loss for the name(mojito favia?)..Someone Im sure will chime in, it's definitely a sweet peice.

Here's a real stunner I just picked up recently

I got this one from Chris at Reef Koi..he's calling it the Blue Jeans Favia...

Nice pieces Andy. I especially like that G. palauensis.

Thanks bro..I threw the goni up there for Matthew to peek at..difficult to pull the color out of that shot...lol

Loving those! Yeah, I'll charge up the camera & try to get a pic. I may have to get a new memory chip or find a way to dump the memory on thecurrent one. Reason? I don't want to flood my 'puter with pics already on the Hard Drive!
Simple stuff, then get my Photobucket account updated...

Oh, and Andy, no visual bribery is needed. LOL I want to show this one off.
My Goniastrea isn't looking so well lately. It had an Aipitasia hitchhiker that stung it pretty bad. I removed the pest manually, but I see some tissue recession. Darn!!

Here's my mia's pot of gold/baby breath favia. You can see some of the crazy color combination's that have formed.

 

[SPSpirate]

which one is it?...looks nice!!

 

[Brian94558]

I think a Mia's Pot of Gold Favia. The body of it is turning into a bright shade of teal blue all of a sudden.

I'm seconding that ID. Very beautiful Favia.
BTW, I goofed forgot to plug the camera battery in, got to go do that.
But how can I get a good pic that isn't blurred ( My earlier efforts sort of..no, no sort of. THEY SUCKED. Colored blurs!) in a Bowfront?

[SPSpirate]

you can do it Matthew!!

 

[me_reef_geek]

its been a wile since I have been on the site,thought I would start with adding to the eye candy

That last pic did not show for me, I got a red x. What the heck causes that anyway?
I can try Andy, I cannot promise success however...
Actually, I'm at the point of upgrading the entire reef, as in bigger tank. Maybe wait? Maybe not. So far this one has held its colors. (Fingers crossed!). I'll just go get the pic..
