I wanna see the BIGGEST favia or favites you have!

ive recently taken a(nother) fascination to the brain type corals but i wanna see huge colonies. Cool colors earns extra points... so does it eating!

Also could you tell me how big it was when you got it and how long it took to get to the size it is now?"
 
Here's the largest I've ever had. Unfortunately, this one got badly stung by a Hammer Coral, quite some time ago, and had to be fragged. It was about the size of a large grapefruit. Also, in this picture, you can see it "budding" off. Those buds grew well, and are still with me.

Here it is, out of water, about to be fragged, to save it from the damage caused by the hammer, which continued to spread, after the initially sting.

Here you can see the damage.

Off topic, the stylish plastic bag shirt and whity tighties is very hip for the coming spring! So I've read anyway! LOL
 
How big where they when you got them and how long have you had them?

i really like the bottom one!
