Not the best pics, but here's my PPE favia from WWC

 

[roblack]

Nice PPE favia, I'll have to try and get a shot of mine, really cool coral. Got a tiny frag as a freebie on a large order and it has grown to about the size of yours in a few months. Ian, are you referring to the DITR Hell's Kitchen Chalice "thing"?

 

[Ian]

Im not too sure where it originated. I think theres only one though so chances are... how bout we get Joe to chime in?

 

[KEEPERZ]

real nice but looks more favia like, just because of the puffiness IMO=hit the link for HK info

But not quite as controversial as Falice.

SDguy's HK actually looks like a chalice but also a bit acan rotunda-ish too, more so than faviid to me. Peter, not suggesting that you should've posted in the Rotundaflora Show Off Thread :lolspin:, if one even exists (Oh no, here it comes!). Whatever it is I love it and am respectfully jealous!

 

[SDguy]

I have echinos, doesn't look like them. I have a rotundo...doesn't look at all like it.

But anywho, this is the Favia Showoff thread, not the Help SDguy ID his wierd coral thread, so I'll let it go

It may not look like your other echinos as there's 8 different specie of Echinophyllia. And probably about 75% of Echinophyllia that do come in are E. aspera which SDGuys' piece looks like an E. aspera, or E. echinoporoides which has my bet.

A new one I piked up.

 

[tntneon]

-very beautiful favia reefer 334 ,
wish mine was that beuatiful , mine`s starting to bleach in the centre only.
under actinic`s they glow the same , but with normal lighting on it`s more white in the centre.

i already replace it on the sand bottom , where there is less current.
no3 and po4 are always zero .
kh is about 8
ca 420 ppm and mg about 1200 ppm.
specific gr is 1026
