The pic is a bit blurred, definately not montipora capricorins though. It looks like there are ridges between the corallites?
 
indeed, pic is blurry, and for a positive ID, we need to see the polyp structure.

99% sure it's not a montipora capricornis too

I believe it's a purple haze Montipora which is a plating species but not a cap, either way I'd be checking for nudis.
 
As mentioned it looks like the encrusting type of monti. If that's the case I would reposition it so you give the edges a change to encrust in more places, other wise I think the floating edge will grow downwards and brown out/look funny
