Also known as: Formerly classed under Favia
Metroid Dipsastraea is a named color morph of Dipsastraea (formerly classed under Favia). It shows a magenta to pink ridged skeleton with bright green centers around the corallites. This is an aquaculture frag, about a 1 inch piece. Care follows standard favia-type practice: low to medium light, low to medium flow, placement low to mid rockwork, and give it room, it is aggressive and can sting neighbors. Growth is slow.
