Here is one i just picked up that needsome tlc

Jose, looks like it has really nice potential, keep us updated once it settles into your system, I am very curious to see what it's gonna look like after you nurtured it a bit

who knew that Favids could compete with the Mics, Acans and Chalices of the world for sheer beauty, some of the new morphs, especially since the Australian stuff started pouring in have some really sick colorations, I am hoping that newer and newer morphs keep popping up. People like Jose and Hugo definitely have the eye for the beauties, keep em coming guys!

Another keeper, Jose'. AS usual..
Where do you get your corals, because these are some sweet Favias you are finding.

Just picked this up yesterday - a good sized colony...

 

[juniormc8704]

My newest pick ups, the yellowest corals ive ever seen...period.

and another sweet one...really close up

 

[wishntoboutside]

very nice.. what program did you use to add the borders that gives it a real nice touch to those sexy favia's

 

[Sheol]

I don't see any yellow, but since these pics are under Actinics, that doesn't mean that its not there.
Anyway, some definitely nice pieces there, juniormc8740.

Looks Yellow to me....

 

[Txcowboy22]

Here is the only favia I have but its a nice one...

 

[juniormc8704]

yeah, in person it is yellow as yellow can get, but in the pics it does have a slight green hue to it. The closest thing i can describe in terms of its color would be a yellow highlighter.

for the borders i used photoshop, and the watermark, i used watermark factory 2.

 

[juniormc8704]

Here is the pics of them before i fragged them. also these are top down (obviously)

Very nice Txcowboy22 & juniormc8704.

Luv this thread, so many nice pieces. Here's two frags I picked up recently..

 

[kev apsley]

WOW! juniormc8704 and thin crust, those are some sweet pieces!

 

[nUgZ]

Beautiful frags thin crust.

 

[Sheol]

thin crust those are a couple of exceptional pieces there. Nice!
juniormc8740, Yeah, that is what I thought it might be. And under certain light, yellow highliter looks greenish. BTW, pic #2 looks like a Favites. But since they are so close, we are just considering them all Favia!
That first one was very, VERY nice indeed..

Matthew

 

[juniormc8704]

thanks very much. yes you are absolutely correct #2 is indeed favites, but i couldnt resist posting it. all three i got from one place, from one order. I take pictures for their shop, and i couldnt pass up, i bought about a dozen polyps from each.

 

[650-IS350]

Thincrust, nice prisms. I hope mine colors up too.

 

[JOSE CASAS]
