Going All Montipora !!!!

Well almost all......

I have made the plunge and have decided which Acro's I have now that I will keep. I have narrowed it down to just a few colonies. The rest of my tank will be all Monti with a few different types of Brids Nest. So I picked up these today...

Confusa-- Green Polyp with pink and purple base/tips...

No slobber allowed!!! ;D

Just placed my final order with Extreme corals, picked up the ORA German Purple birdsnest and the ORA crazy green Birdsnest, should be here Friday Morning!!!!
 
Amazing Theme you've got going there. Montis' are some of the best when you can find some good samples.
Trop is usually good at getting in some hidden gems if you can spot them.

I do have one monti that I dont think you have, it's an encrusting Green, has been called Monti Efflourescense in some circles. I finally found a way to frag it, it grows very fast on my orange cap when it hits it. You are welcome to a piece if you like.
