What kind of encrusting coral is this?

[Freed]

I think I might know what it is but I want to hear from you guys what you think it is. Anyone feel free to share what you think it is. Thanks, Jeff

I don't know but your purple monti? looks like is amazing you selling those or are they to go in your tank?

 

[Freed]

Selling the ones that break off from cleaning/rearranging stuff in the tank.

does this include the purple one? sorry for getting off topic my friend had an encrusting monti like that but with purple polyps.

Just trying to find out if the monti with green polyps in the pic is a sunset monti or not. Thanks, Jeff

Looks like a crate monti to me!!! :lol: Wow haven't moved that thing in a while huh?

 

[Freed]

Yeah, was hoping it would grow up instead of out onto the crate.

It's the new LE.... Eggcrate Monti!

I'd agree on a Montipora. I have a similar one (may be the same?) that's a deep maroon color with neon green polyps and looks exactly the same physically.

What lighting is yours under and how far away from the lights?

i'm not sure its a monti, i've never seen a monti put up a branch like the one on the right side of your pic

I'm pretty sure that's some type of worm tube that the monti(?) is encrusting on. The parent of the purple cap in the pic does that too when a worm tube gets in the way.
