What kind of plating monti is this?

[AkoAung]

Hello good people of RC. I appreciate your help. Now please don't jump all over me because I have a flame BTA in the frame. I didn't know the monti was there, as my eyes were dazzled by the flames. For color reference also, a colony of rastas is in the background. Sorry this was not with a macro lens as I don't have one. monti's base color is a bit more orange but it doesn't come out that well in the photo.

This plating orange monti seems to have translucent polyps that glows blue under blue light. Is that what typical monti polyps are?

The blueness of the picture makes it a tad difficult to identify, at least for me.

There's a lot of Montipora species out there that can semi-plate like yours is and have those verrucae (bumps) on the edge. If I had to take a first guess I would say M. danae.

Typical Montipora polyps could be any color on any species potentially. Not so typical polyps would be multi-colored like Pokerstar Montipora which has orange dots in the center of green polyps.

Thank you for that explanation.
