Granny's should be named "the coral of the many virtues"... like patience,skills,good reefer etc

Welldone bulent,it seems you have all these skills
That thing is a really slow grower indeed but when it does it's soooo rewarding:inlove:
Thanks for the pics!

Does that monti give it hard time or you cut it off when it reaches?

Thanks for your praise Mike, but I think I am only getting better at taking pictures.

That is a Montipora monaseriata. Unlike most other encrusting Montipora sp, it does not encrust live rock. It is very easy to break and remove. Here is a better picture of it:

This was sold to me as rainbow granulosa but looks nothing like what y'all are posting. I apologize if it's the wrong darn thing

Hi Engin, I am afraid your coral does not look like an A. granulosa to me mate. However, it looks very nice though. You should be pleased with it.

Here is my collection.


The one in the bottom of the picture is a true chamaeleon. One of the most common granulosas (at least over here).
High amounts of light makes it metallic-green, fading into blue/purple right at the tip. Light brownish to white polyps.

Low amounts gives it a dark-green base, blue tips and red polyps. Very pretty, though in my experience, it needs to be in growth before being placed there. It takes forever to get it going under these" low light" circumstances.

Many of the corals in this thread are not granulosa, most are loripes and others
