Favia Show Off Thread
 
The Sunburst and Baby's Breath thread got me all into exploring other morphs and colors that are out there, so this is a thread to show off those hidden gems and your favorite Favia corals...I'll start it off with a couple Tyree favorites that I would love to get my hands on

Tyree War and Peace...

racerw,
Those are sweet! Nice Shots!

Favia are quickly becoming my newest and favorite addiction ;) , I think I'm falling in Love with all of them:hmm4:

All Delight 10/02/2007 01:59 PM

The War and Peace favia is the same as the one Hugo introduced right?

If it is I remember when he got that piece and was trying to sell me a frag. :D I liked it, but I was way into micros back then. Now I'm kicking myselft, I should've gotten a frag.

Very nice btw. very nice.

All Delight,
That is correct Hugo found it according to reeffarmers website " Hugo acquired the coral from an Indonesian exporter in September of 2006"

shoot, your close to Hugo right? next time you go see him hit him up for some of his hidden gems, especially if that is you in your avatar? I'd be giving stuff to you for free :)

Here's a couple of old photos. The War coral is about 5 times the size and the Favia is about 3 times the size and the eyes have really turned a bright yellow.

I got my war and peace coral from Hugo before it became a LE.Some of my favorite include dragon soul ,pink/purple pillow favia i got from Richard(wishtoboutside).I will post pictures later on today:)

All Delight 10/03/2007 11:09 AM

Kev - Hugo has all kinds of nice pieces. Just depends what you like. Lucky for me, we like alot of the same corals. He's more a SPS freak then LPS.

Jose - Wassup man. LOL, he sold you on that war and peace. Its very nice, I should've gotten it. Remember how big that colony was. I know you got a lot of nice stuff, post those pics.

pookstreet 10/03/2007 11:11 AM

Nice stuff everyone.

Here are some that I have. I also got my War and Peace from Hugo before it became an LE.
