Well i am looking to get 3 or 4 types (colorations) of montipora. I would like some of the "named" colorations. Like superman monti. One of my base rocks has a large vertical face and was thinking about putting a few types of monti. on it to cover the rock. Since I am needing something that will just cover the rock and stay basically flat against it. So.......... was wanting to see some pics :).

Also if you could choose just 3 or 4 what would be your top ones???
 
heres my top 3, cant really think of a 4th that i would want

forrest fire (green with red polyps)
superman (blue with red polyps) classis
mystic sunset (orange with blue polyps)
 
My favs...

Sunset Monti..(orange w/ green polys)
Rainbow Monti...(Mine is red, blue and green w/ purple base)
Always liked superman as well...Marv has one of the best pics of it.
 
does it have to be tubeculosa? or can it be any encrusting monti?

my top 3 favorite montis are:
monti peltiformis (LA Lakers monti/yellow purple monti)
rainbow monti (like the colors)
true sunset monti

not because they are rare... but because their colors are outstanding
 
my peltiformis monti was a bit browned out when i took this pic (from PC lighting) but u get the idea. check the purple polyps... someone else here had a great pic of a colony... forgot who though :(
