hello guys

I am still guessing what is the secret for a montipora bubble gum to develop the toxic green tips? Mine started with green tips and now is getting more and more all red.

Is there any secret sauce?

I really would enjoy green tips…

U see the difference in the pics below.

No idea but maybe it is forest fire digita? I have one similar I think is bubble gum due to the pink tips , but sometimes it can be green also

No brother, it is def. a bubble gum..
But I am nor sure what it needs to develop the green tips though..

Some say too much bluelight is bad
some say its the metals in the water

Ime the coral is bullet proof but was mad when I first got it so that makes sense took a couple months to get acclimated
