Setosa or other encrusting monti ?

[Eric23]

Picked this frag up today. The guy at the store didn't know what it was. I assumed it was setosa but I'm not sure. What do you think ?

 

[Ben Morin]

Not a setosa looks like a montipora undata to me

 

[Eric23]

Never seen an orange undata ? That's more like the Jedi mind trick Monti right ?

Eric , Jedi mind trick is a common name for a montipora undata I will go with undata too

Yes I actually see orange undtata at my LFS sometimes

 

[Eric23]

I've never seen undata in any color other then the mind trick type. I've seen orange Monti Danae but never undata. I wish they used the scientific names along with whatever else they want to call it when selling coral. In any case thanks for the info gentleman much appreciated

 

[anthonys51]

Sometimes they don’t even know then

 

[Eric23]

Could be orange danae also. Looks similar to the Jason fox orange marmalade Monti Danae ? Doesn't really matter it looks good in my tank just having fun trying to figure it out

Scientific names would be great... wish more vendors would use them. A lot don’t and it’s frustrating.
