also, check this out. no idea who would ever think to do this, but the result is kind of interesting. i didnt know they would grow together.

You would think that they would try to out compete each other. That must mean that they are the same species. Kinda like people......different colors but we can all mix. Awesome in my opinion!

I read that and thought that was one of the coolest things I have ever seen!

As soon as I read that the other day I thought "WOW I HAVE TO TRY THIS!"

At one time I glued 5 different colored morphs of montipora digitada together, they all grow and didn't kill each other either. they made sort of bumps at the glue together joints. Pretty cool looking I thought

do you have a pic of that? sounds awesome.

Wish I could find it, I did it 10 years ago or so

After I saw that, I actually took a big frag of a green purple rim cap and glued a piece of rose digi in the center. I will take a pic and post it on here.

digi's and cap usually don't mix, one will end up killing the other over time

same family but different species is why

 

[Paul_PSU]

I had an extra frag of each and figured I would give it a shot. I wish I could find another pic I saw on RC. The guy did it by accident and the thing grew like a flower; with the cap growing just around digi and never on it like petals and the digi just grew up and branching out never growing over the cap.
