Has been in tank for 4 months

Was a giveaway piece from someone who was breaking down their tank

hasnt done much, tank parameters are aligned to not an issue

i do run nitrates about 15

lighting are 3 radion xr15 pro set to lps/soft lighting running 50%

thoughts if coral looks alright-dont think it is dead-just not much growth and dark not a bright red

white spot at back is where it was glued to rock

Yeah I’d say definitely Monti . Plating type, it’ll get pretty big given if it’s happy

Might want punch up lights a bit. I’m running a mixed reef at the moment with Reefbreeders Photon 2. Run it at 60 on blues peak. Know you have different lights, but I’d either google or do a R2R search for Radions and see what others re running for mixed. If you do it slowly I’m pretty sure the others will adapt. I started at 50 myself been going up slowly as I’ve started Acros and other SPS again.
