I understand people saying aefw don't go on montis and it doesn't look like them, but have you dipped it yet. I couldn't see my flat worms but they were there. A simple ten min dip could eliminate pests possibilities in General.
 
AEFW (acropora eating flatworms) don't effect montipora, for obvious reasons... :)

Montipora eating nudibranchs (MEN) could be something to check for, however.
 
Well hopefully not I have never gotten aefw but I have seen some tanks demolished from them or most likely the aggressive dipping methods from the unfortunate hobbyists
 
definitely not AEFW, dont even worry about them. Could be monti nudis. A couple of light dips of all montis will cure this rather easily. Looks rather starved. Move it low in the tank until the color becomes more intense, maybe a month or two. Also dip it twice about a week apart to get rid of and potential monti nudis. Maybe feed the tank more or get more fish.
