if anyone has any suggestions on exact species of monti let me know. like i said i was thinking pokerstar, but then the formations dont seem near the same. this is the colony it was fragged from, and it was actenics when i had a chance to photo this too so you cant tell but the polyps are a lot more green than they look here.

 

[Dana42078]

Just my opinion....seeing as i have been looking at all types of monti's lately.....to me...that looks kinda like a hologram monti...ive been wrong before...

 

[Dana42078]

too blue to be an M. Undata

 

[Alexander]

Not completely sure on the digitada either but it kinda looks like the green digitada ora grows, but it doesn't specify species.

 

[Dana42078]

Nice piece reguardless of its name Alex. It looks happy.

 

[Alexander]

these pics are a little bit better, color wise

 

[Alexander]

[ErinCahir]

Ooo. I love the slimer shot.

 

[Dana42078]

Nice top downs Alex! I too like that slimer shot.

I wouldnt doubt the m.undata...I'm sure ppl get lil diff colors under diff lights. Let me know how it grows for you. I've been debating on gettin a chunck of that.

 

[Bifferwine]

Your monti is a monster! Nice going growing it out.

 

[PRC]

Ooo. I love the slimer shot.

got more corals today!!!!!!!!!!!!


got this leather coral. i think it s a Capnella.

got myself a really nice size millipora

and this sps frag too. anyone have an id on this. it has brown polyps and green polyps on the growth line... got a little bit of super glue on the coral itself hopefully it will be ok OOPS!

this is the colony it came from so you can get a better idea

and here is a little shot of the left side of my tank. its filling up nicely :)

 

[little_fish]

I have no idea what that coral is, but i want a piece of it!

 

[Alexander]

Maybe if I get a good growout I can send you a piece like that :)

 

[little_fish]

eek! that would be exciting! :D

 

[Alexander]

nobody has an id on that?

 

[ErinCahir]

No idea.
But cool new stuff!

 

[AmberSunrise]

I really like that Green Stylophora! Is it high maintenance?

 

[little_fish]

the polyps look extremely similar to all of my digitatas.

 

[Alexander]

I really like that Green Stylophora! Is it high maintenance?

So far I haven't really done anything and it seems happy. Just good perameters on a 4 year old tank. Waited years to get into the sps game just gotta make sure my cal and alk don't get wacked out and we should be good :)
