Charizard Favia
Charizard is a pretty ambitious name for a coral, but the warm colors of this Favia make the connection easy enough to see. Orange and red tones spread across the tissue around contrasting centers, giving the corallites a glowing, ember-like appearance.
The Pokémon-inspired name has followed this Favia around the hobby for years, and with a color combination that looks like it came from the warmer end of the Pokédex, Charizard seems like a reasonable place for it to land.

We recommend starting the Charizard Favia in the 100 - 200 PAR range.
Flow — Moderate
Moderate
Provide Moderate variable flow that keeps detritus from settling on the Favia. Avoid constant direct current from the same direction in favor of random chaotic water movement.
Placement — Lower to Mid level
Placement of your Charizard Favia is one of the most important decisions.
This is where you’ll have to take lighting, flow, future growth and nearby corals into consideration.
Since it prefers 100 - 200 PAR range it will need to be mounted Lower to Mid level on your rock work depending on your light intensity.
Allow room for its Encrusting growth form, and consider neighboring coral colors and shape. When possible, use contrasting corals such as red next to green, blue next to orange, or yellow next to purple, and mix growth forms such as tall branching corals next to plating or encrusting corals.
