Wow, that monti was big! Have you started another since the loss?

Post number 1036. It’s in my 220. Had enough foresight to take multiple frags before coral death.

Your unknown is Porites Lobata. I have the same one. It’s mostly hexagonal coralites that are green with purple polyps. The growth normally begins as an encrusting coral of medium speed and then starts to develop dimes which grow in size.

It’s a wonderful coral and pretty much bulletproof.
