I have 2 types of Monti Cap on my "hit list" that I didn't see at the swap and I was wondering if someone had seen them around or had a colony to share from. I know these two are commonly sold online, but I would rather NOT ship a poker chip sized frag overnight if I could help it.
The first will be the toughest: Tyree LE Flower Petal Montipora
It has a green surface with blue and white polyps, and a purple growth edge. This picture is what I am after. I had a frag in my last tank and it looked EXACTLY like the one on this site. Unfortunately, that tank died a horrible death, along with all my LPS and SPS, so I am after a new one since my new tank is doing well.
The second is more common. Maybe it's a little TOO common, and that's why I didn't find it on sunday. Idaho Grape Montipora
It's pretty much how it sounds; it's a monti that is the color of grape jelly. I've never had it before but have always wanted to try it.
I understand that there will be color variations in different tank conditions. These pics are of the corals I am looking for in the best of conditions. If anyone happens across one or the other, I would appreciate a heads up, and if you have some to sell, even better. Thanks all for looking!
