Need a positive ID. It is purple in color and has red polyps. Size is about that of a dime and only paid $18. Thanks.

looks like purple haze to me.

my purple haze monti GLOWS in my tank. one of my most favorite corals........its a wonder why its not more popular. (probably b/c its easy/cheap to get thus people don't want it....lol)

i like the purple haze better than the superman IMO.

A trick I use is to glue a small dead acro branch to it. It will then encrust the branch...voila! Instant branching purple haze monti

I think that happens on a lot of wild/mariculture colonies. There some "digitata" on liveaquaria sometimes that really dont look like digitata. Would explain the wild colors and polyps.
