LOL at least i think it is a Monti...

was sold as a Digitata...but i dont think that is what it is...

possibly a Stylo?

either way it is nice and yellow and takes a run with my yellow scroll for brightest yellow in the tank..skeleton seems almost pinky orange..

Looks like M. digitata or M. samarensis. The two species are extremely similar, especially when young. I can see where you might suspect Stylopora with the club-shaped branches, but Stylopora doesn't show these pale growing tips, which are typical of the Montis mentioned.
 
Thanks Jamie....Samarensis is the other one i was thinking...but couldnt remember the name...the "clubs" lead me to beleave it isnt digi....as none of my other digi's grow like that...they seem to branch far more...

i guess i will see what she turns into soon enough...can hardly wait...i will be breaking a small piece to place else where in the tank to see if it looses or gains better colours...a little lower in the light department..low flow spots in my tank are few and far between in my tank so i hope she does well own by the sand...all my frags seem too..
