Great color. What kind of Montipora is that? The polyp mouths make me think it looks more like an Echinophyllia. But I am not the best with coral IDs

I don’t know either. The owner of the aquarium shop said it was an Montipora, so I bought it.By the way Its color is actually pink, but due to the blue light it appears purple.

There are 6 montis in this picture. One barely visible

 

[i cant think]

If only I had montis in my tank...

I’ve gone hunting for the remaining montis in my system, none of them are POTM worthy.

Here’s my back from the dead red monti. It came with the tank when I moved it and was about quarter size and all brown.

This was a hard one with the lighting in my tank, but why not give it a shot. Here is my submission.

its a photo competition not a popularity contest so it should be the other way around
still agree with encouraging all to post even with regular subject or less camera skills as its a fun conmpetition after all.
