The Favites Green Blessings is a stunning coral species that immediately stands out with its intense fluorescent green color and compact polyp structure. This large-polyp stony coral (LPS) forms beautiful, rounded colonies with a mosaic-like pattern of contrasting shades of green and sometimes subtle blue accents.

The Favites is robust and relatively slow-growing, making it ideal for aquarists who appreciate stable, easily controlled coral growth. Despite its slow growth rate, it can develop into a true eye-catcher on the reef with proper care.
