I got this a freebie a year or so ago as part of an order but I can’t find the invoice so I have no idea what it is and I’m really not a Monti fan so… anyone have any ideas? It’s Orange with blue polyps. Pics are with and with out polyp lab filter.

If you are looking for a scientific name, this looks like a Montipora Palawensis. As for a trade name, I’m going to guess Rainbow Phoenix monti. I’m also going to throw in Kung Pao monti.
 
I think kung pao or other phoenix monti like alexopora said. My kung pao has slightly darker blue polyps than my beach bum, but these corals change color so much depending on par levels. Nice coral and great growth btw

Thank you! It’s funny I’m not into Monti’s and I think it’s this was sent to my accidentally by TSA or JF but I just can’t find the emails. I almost gave it away and someone said I was crazy lol.

Thanks again everyone.
