I have an Idaho grape, but it's not that color or texture(the one in the picture that you say is an idaho grape is purple and looks just like my orange capricornis monti? The setosa that I got has big polyps and is branching and has visible polyps, despite being very small and the color and texture is very different. The frag in the picture has none of this. Maybe morphs?

Here is the update for anyone interested:

1) Green Polypo Purple "Cap", possibly M. peltiformis)

2) a variation of M. capricornus (Possibly the “Idaho Grape), but more with a blue rim. So Harryjsinger was correct.

3) M. palawacensis from Kwajalein

4) Montipora sp. - Kwajalein Atoll "Blue Polyp"

2:Idaho Grape
3:Montipora Setosa (Should start branching soon I believe)

Correct on the Idaho Grape, but not #3. Thanks.

You ppl get the good stuff in the us, we get green red or blue monti in Denmark and if we can buy the good a nice one it is called us-montipora and cost like a million and your 1.born.

But if we are lucky we get em here like 2years after you get em.

Huh. I thought that reefing was invented in Europe right? But that doesn't mean that you can get all the best corals.
