That is a Platygyra??!?! Holy orange blasters Batman! LOL
Most unusual Platy I've ever seen, colorwise. Whatever you do, hang on to that puppy!
Hopefully in 2-3 weeks I'll be shopping for some new corals. My 60 Gallon Reef debut today. JOY JOY! Room for more Favia/favids. And some softies.
What to get? What to get?

Well, there are others of that one out there. That is exactly like the blue one I got a few weeks ago. Unfortunately, it did not do well for me. Maybe it needed more light. Whatever, it bleached. It was barely alive when I boke down the old tank last week.
I hope I can find another frag of it next month.

this thread needs a bump! Rob got anything new these days?

 

[Sheol]

Eventually, my new tank will be ready for hard corals. Not yet, though.
Of course, Favids will be one thing I look for.
Other than that, because of certain fish, my current tank will be featuring (dis)tasteful softies (to fish!).
I'll keep everyone posted.

Matt
Ps.
Suggestions for what to do with old 36 gallon tank?

Hello, guys, This is my favia.
The other favia condition isn't great. Would you care to share some tips to improve my current condition. Favia size has been noticeably shrunk.<br>

I love them all! Keep it coming.

I dunno about that Facebook one. Either its bleached, or there was too much flash or glare. I actually think it was the later, though..
Nice corals. I miss my Favia..
