derek.reef, tank has been shut down for around year and half and all corals were sold or given away to the fellow reefers. The wall of green was covered almost 10" square corner weir which happened to be 28" tall. It's a shame that I don't have more pics of this beautiful coral.

Spirofucci and Mpoletti, I must say those are some extremely impressive montis you have there and some awesome pictures. Any secrets you can share on how you keep them lloking so well. I am on a never ending battle trying to keep all mine happy. Some will be doing great while another, not so much and it seems to flip flop every few months. The only ones I have had that has looked great since I had it is the Purple Haze. and the Purple Rim Undata.

Most monti's are prety easy to keep. I can't say I do anything special to take care of them besides good flow and good light.
 
I think we have gone beyond just encrusting montipora. Like Mark mentioned we have been adding plating and branching montipora as well.

Here is one that strictly encrusts....

I picked this one up at a frag swap in Sept. It has been growing fairly well.

I love these types of coral, I hope to get more.

Let's see some more!
