What do you guys keep your montiporas at, temperature-wise? I'm wondering if that might be my problem with them.

My system varies from 78 to 82 and the monti caps are growing like a weeds - I have about 10 pieces and they are all flourishing.

My monti digis are not growing as aggressively but they are doing well.

Mine is at 75 or so...too cold, maybe?

I have a friend that just came back a few weeks ago from spending a well at one of the mariculture facilities in Bali. They grow the corals out in the ocean, and then tank them on land. The tanks are kept 75-76 deg and the corals are in there for upwards of a month.

And the colors that some of the Bali pieces arrive with are spectacular.

So I think its possible you could have success at 75
