School me on Montipora Latana

[ptrusk]

Who is keeping these? Do they like low light or high light? Picked up an ORA Latana Montipora a month ago with a snail order, was pretty pale. Can't find his happy place. Started low, moved up still looks punky.

What can you tell me?

Several other montis in this tank loving life.

I had mine directly under Hydra 26HDs getting 250 par or so and lots of flow. Colored up really well after a couple months. Encrusted only for me, but I heard it will branch eventually. Cool looking coral, very fast growing and aggressive and stung pretty much every Acro it touched after getting to about 6” across. Ended up taking out the rock and killing it with Kalk paste after making some frags to sell.
