oh yeah, the orange cap with yellow polyps in the middle front! :) the pic was taken the same day I acclimated them this past Saturday...
 
I managed to pic up a blue plating monti last week, you dont see many

As nice as that looks.....I would bet money that it doesn't stay blue like that.

Sorry to be a downer....bet I have seen this happen time and time. Blue caps usually are just freshly shipped and slightly bleached purple caps.
