Encrusting monti going rogue

[hllb]

This is a mystic sunset monti (encrusting). It’s curiously growing in an almost plating fashion on the left and front edges. Just curious if this is common? I suppose it gives me an easy way to frag it if needed.

No idea why the picture rotated lol

Maybe the flow or the way light may reflect off the glass .

Looks like it ran out of a rock so yeah I will stretch out some.

Not unusual When they run out of rock...mine do the same which you mentioned makes it easier to frag
Undata and Jedi mind trick

I quit putting monti's in my tank for this reason. They're like giant aiptasia for me.

Although I'm a sucker for that Neon lime green one. Gets me every time I see it.

Interesting as mine just grew down the rock when it met the edge. Never plated out.
