So I found both of these Favias on the TSA website. Same name but kind of looks completely different.

Now are they the same thing and just grew differently or..? I can kind of see the red rim on the top picture but thats it.

Just curious if its the same thing or not before I place an order in the future.

Even if they come from the same colony, it's possible they'll grow into two entirely different specimens! The bottom one has a hint of green, whereas the first one seems to be primarily green and less red. It also appears slightly larger and more developed. It could also be the lighting of the two pics being slightly different. It's hard to really tell from one picture. Is it possible that you could contact the seller for more info or pics? That might help your decision.

Hey! Just some input. The first picture was from back in November, the second picture is very recent. Over the last few months the colony has morphed also the pictures were under slightly different lighting. Definitely the same colony though.
