Yeah I thought so too, I believe they grow in a dome shape correct?
and mrdc, that is exactly why I had to have it, the greens are amazing.
Thanks everyone for helping me ID this piece, super helpful

isn't a favia also a "brain"???? I looked in my coral book, and my neon green eye brain is also pictured under favias (or they look the same anyways)
this is it on the site......mine is different colors...

LOL...I know Henry, but last night I didn't feel like looking it up, and I knew what it was called when I bought it.
ALSO....Favia is kinda general too....isn't it? In my coral book there are quite a few different types of Favias....pallida, sp., speciosa, stelligera, among many others.....this is one of the things that gets me confused

It sure has grown. What are you feeding it?
Nothing specifically...it eats what the tank eats...mysis, marine cuisine, spirulina, the new h20 frozen cubes that have a large variety of things...I also use selcon, zoe, zoecon, vita-chem, h20 fish food soak, LOL.....I am sure that I left something out, but it gets a lot of different varieties

Very nice growth. I have the same one (the little frags right?) from swf.com. mine was on the brink of death when I received it and it's made a fully recovery plus some. I need to get some of that rock-cement stuff so that I can keep it in one place...damn hermits keep pushing the frag around.

If you look at the pics you can see where it has spread onto the rock....YAYYYYY....so I am sure it is now permanently on there...

No no.. I can certainly see how yours has become attached. Mine gets knocked out of it's little spot I wedged it in about every 2 days by hermits/snails... in order for mine to become attached like yours I'll have to attach it with something first (that sounds funny).

LOL...I know what you mean....I used the epoxy when I first got it, and FOR ONCE it took....I have the worst luck with glues and epoxies

and now I know what you mean! I thought that stuff was permenant....put some on a small piece of rock and attached it to a larger rock... couple months later I only slightly touched the smaller rock and it fell off....
