encrusting pavona?

[Kreeger1]

This looks like a encrusting monti but I don't believe it is. It has the same polyp structure as pavona but I can't id it in verons book

The purple was more intense when I got it, not sure if it likes the 400 watt mh yet.

porites maybe, but I don't thing pavona.

Yeah, probably a Porites, but also resembles an encrusting Montipora nodosa, spumosa, efflorescens, or turgescens possibly. Also, kind of resembles my M. undata I have, just not boulder shaped like that and different coloration. Looks like a sweet piece whatever it is.

Looks like either a montipora nodosa or millis.

You'll be able to tell better Genetics after you get your piece on Nov 1st

Pavona Maldivensis, low light coral I believe...acclimate well...

 

[Kreeger1]

nope, I thought it was along the Pavona Maldivensis lines but it is infact a Montipora species. Seems to like my 400 watt 12 reeflux bulbs
