monti id *pics*

So I bought this monti about 2 weeks ago. It has been in the 20gallon over a 150w de metal halide. Growth is pretty excellent. It has added about 2 cm to its entire diameter. I am wondering what type of monti it is, though. I thought it was a cap originally but now I am thinking otherwise. Here are some pics:

looks like a standard capricornus to me...

Actually with the ridges that are forming along the outer edge I believe this to be Montipora delicatula. M. capricornis is very smooth without any ridges or tuberculae.

Super fast growing as you have noticed. They can easily become the dominant coral in your reef.
