The name comes from Verons COTW but the misspelling comes from me. The correct spelling is Aequituberculata. I have also seen the coral offered online spelled without the beginning 'A'...not that I'm casting stones, of course.
Montipora Love.

In reply to where to get that sunburst monti...I got it from Underwaterworld. The picture is the one they posted...not mine...I have a frag. So far, my frag is green base, orange polyp with a blue/purple growth edge. Still waiting for the base color change. Is it a lucky color morph from bleaching???? I'm still waiting to see. The picture was worth posting because it truly is the coolest monti I have ever seen. I hope my frag colors up. It took 6 months to settle in and has since started to really take off. I will update....

DID I SOUNDS SMRT??
That is a nice Undata. How much light you giving that bad boy??
Also the second monti. I have the same one. It was falsely sold as a sunset monti. Its a nice one though....almost brighter then the real sunset but the polyps are'nt as nice. I was on someones website that had the same coral and they were calling it "the poor mans sunset". Sounds like a good name to me.

Hahaha 64Ivy. Its about 1.5-2yers old. The cap sits in the left side of my 120
and has stole light from about 2 acros killing them. I have notice that this cap LOVES high light. High light that some of my acros can't even take. Still deciding if I am going to part with it. Need some room for some prime real estate.
Sorry for the bad pic. Wify had the camera and while I was doing a water change decided to take a quick shot with the iphone.
Going to try to grab a pic of another monti that I have later tonight to share. I have not seen this one posted yet.

This is a piece like no other. It is one of the brightest orange monti's that I have ever seen. Maybe the colors pop because of the color contrast to the Lime in the Sky?
Once again I apologize for the crappy pics. I tried using the wife's camera, but man does it come out so BLUE. One of these days a DSLR should be in my hands, but sorry to say these pics are taken from my iphone.

Here's a close up. Same piece but a close up with a good camera. This piece is Ian's.
