Having looked it up yes! Lol

I called it a purple rimmed montipora but my brain won’t ‘compute’ coral names!

Its a beautiful coral, I’ve taken several frags of it around the tank and it grows very well.
Looks more like an undata to me, my Leng Sy's were never that smooth.

Love all of these - such a great genus!!

Ipicked up a Tubbs stellata from the WWC eBay auction this week. Looking snappy! (sorry for the too-blue photo)

Monti digi all hate me . And plates for tat matter two . Encrusting I have a little better luck. However there is a small peace of purple plating monti that is growing. It’s actually my favorite plateing montie so cool !
i bought a green digi that almost died and has brown out . But it’s recovering. I think my lights are to strong ( halides ) because acropora do ok for me.

Montis can take quite a bit of light in my experience. What are your magnesium and potassium levels? If those are low montis tend not to do as well.
