Who has the biggest montipora.

[Ehgemus]

I have one about 7" dia I know there are bigger out there, so lets see some pictures.

 

[Capt_Cully]

I'm sure it's not the biggest but this one is about 12x16 in.

And this purple is about the biggest I've seen other than public aquariums:

Aww, come on, size doesn't matter.

 

[57vert]

It's the color.

Be careful letting that monti touch and kill those other corals. I let that go on and it killed a much larger tricolor colony. Both of those birdnests have die off where the monti has/is touching.

My monti grew onto those barespots and kept on going

oh come on now 57vert, you're showing off with that growth.

The middle cap would barely fit in a 5 gallon bucket.

If I can find a picture, I had a friend who had a purple cap that took up 1/3 of a 180 gallon
Crazy

I've been keeping an eye on it. The orange monti and pink bird have been intertwining for about 6 months. You can see a little algae growing where there is some die off. But, I like the look of the monti growing around the bird. Plus, the birdnest is a monster colony and the monti tends to keep it in check.

BUT, the monti was getting too close to my ORA Oregon Tort and I keep having to clip it back.

But, thanks for the warning, I'll keep an even closer eye on it.

Nice pictures guys! They are such a cool coral.

Had to get in on this one, this red monti cap has completely gone nuts! It's even bigger now as this picture is like 6 months old.
