Most of mine at are the top of the tank. Par at about 800, medium water flow, high calcium. Coralife salt.
 
So very cool to see a fully established colony at that magnitude.
How long have you had it and what size did you acquire it?
Simply marvelous!
 
It was about 2-3 polyps when i got it. I didn't even think it would survive because it immediatly bleached out in my tank but colored back up very quickly. I have been growing it for about a year and just took 4 little frags off the day before I took the picture. It is a fast grower for me.

Nice monti everyone. I like monti cap when it grows but dont like when it grow to big smoother other coral.
This are mine and try to figure out what will happen when 3 types of color blend together when they grow big. Fiji purple lime green polyp, lime green and orange monti below:spin1:

Undata is two thirds up in tank but way in the back. Peltiformis is in the corner but half way up. They are under LED lighting. Both are in areas with not much flow. They are growing like weeds. I have three more but, these are my favorites.
