Need coral ID and help

[RalphTheOscar]

Just bought this coral, got it home and noticed the spots on it. I forget what type of coral it was sold to me as.

Anybody ID this coral and tell me whats wrong with it? It was sold as a hard coral and it could be a relative to a brain coral? I dont know

Favia coral. Sometimes these are known as a Christmas Favia due to the coloring.

It looks fine to me btw.

Yes Christmas favia sounds like what she said. Those orange yellow spots are normal then? Favia corals need food along with photosynthesis? Thanks for the help

I feed mine only what it can get from leftovers from the fish. it has grown quite well that way.

Are those orangeish spots normal or does it have some kind of disease? Thanks for feedback
