Fire and Ice Favia YourReef seed colony. This Favia is one of the most colorful Favia corals we have
seen in captivity. |
Corallite ridges of this Favia can develop a bright blue pigmentation. The inner corallite areas are ringed with red pigments. Inside this Ring there is an inner bright blue area. The mouths of the corallites are colored bright red. These color pigments explain the corals name of Fire and Ice, which was coined by Mingwei. There are patterns that also develop inside the corallite areas and the coral may develop some additional pigmentation in captivity.
Steve Tyree is maintaining a seed section of the Fire and Ice Favia for Reeffarmers.com in a 125 gallon naturally filtered Tri-Zonal Reef Aquarium. In Steve's captive reef the coral is positioned to receive moderate light under a 400 watt 20,000 K Radium Metal Halide. It appears that this coral will develop its best growth and coloration under moderate lighting. The price is $100.00 per small fragment consisting of a single corallite.
Please note Reeffarmers is no longer taking new reservations for new corals. The current economic conditions are not supportive for reservations that extend for a few years into the future. After this first edition is distributed, we will sell future captive produced fragments on either our Buy It Now page or via another silent auction. We will still list exotic corals as Limited Editions and will continue to build web pages for them.
