Montipora frags for sale

[Gary Majchrzak]

unknown species. Fresh cut and unmounted. Aprox 2" x 2" frags $20 each. These guys plate outwards and send up tubercles. These are not Monti caps!

Looks like Montipora Spongodes to me...

+1, it's Spongodes, great grower and bright green.

two different species there in my pix... spongodes ID highly suspect. All Montipora species highly variable in growth habit and corallite ID is necessary.

Johnny... you're living in PA now?

I picked up a small frag from Gary a while ago. Fastest growing coral I have ever had. Oddly, a piece snapped off a few months back and has taken on a reddish polyp with an intense purple tip.

I've seen that happen in some of mine. That's why coloration is highly unreliable in IDing corals- especially Montipora species. These things can change color along with alkalinity or pH!

I'm home Tuesday evening can I get a frag Gary?

This is one of my favorite pieces. Super brittle but grows and looks amazing under t5. You would think they were two completely different pieces, and they're on the same rock.

Any chance you would be up in Buffalo anytime with frags?
