yep, or a rock, or put another frag tile next to it,let it encrust, and sell off the extra frag if you want.

Dude I shouldnt have showed you that monit today. Hope it colors up for you. I want dibs when you frag that rainbow monti.

 

 

:lol:

Sorry man - should have smacked me when I picked it. I'll get you a frag of it for pointing it out sometime.

fingerscrossed on the color...polyps are bluer under my light (maybe "reverse superman"?)

 

Gonna have to make a list on the rainbow, I see...you're right behind Weet! B)

haha, np, I thought you would grab it, He suckered me into an acan also.

 

:happy: Yeah, I haven't been passing up montis for anything lately.

 

His guarantee on the acan was right on - plump and happy within an hour in the tank. End up with anything else?

 

Oh - thanks for the tip about Rik's - didn't find any seagrass, but I did find a money cowry finally.

Nice additions (thanks for making us all jealous ;))

 

Looks like rainbow to me - pokerstar doesn't have variable coloring on the polyps, does it?

Thanks!

 

I wish I knew for sure, I have seen some people say that pokerstar can have different color polyps on new growth. It was sold to me as pokerstar, but I think it is rainbow - but since they are just hobby names, who knows. Jukitu above called another version of pokerstar reverse pokerstar - purple polyps on green! I am looking for that one! We need to start montiporaID.com!!!

 

Jukitu - I see a trade in our future for that reverse pokerstar!!

 

And dsharnw and I may need to have a MD monti swap party too after reviewing his pics!! ;)

 

A couple more pics - my mother Orange Cap colony now - under the moonlights with a flash - it is late after all ;)

I had a decent sized purple digitata frag yesterday, but I busted into a bunch of pieces while rearranging my tank and now I have lots of little ones ;-)

Monti. what kind of monti is this? is there a name besides encrusting monti

NICE! Not sure what species or fancy name it is, but I wouldn't mind a small chunk myself.

 

brshriver - Maryland monti frag swap sounds like a good idea...we'll have to work on that sometime.

This is the only monti I've taken pictures of so far. Its unnamed, and apparently this color combo is insofar not common in the industry.

I just got a couple more montis but they need to settle in and regain their colors before I post pics of them.

Methinks we need to start a Monti swap soon.

But could we hold off til after the frag swap on the 19th?

I may have more stuff to trade after that.

Superman-got this from mvite, it's really light purple base instead of the dark like normal Sman

CSC_0664.jpg

 

Strawberry Lemonade-it's a morphed out pokerstar

Tyree Strawberry Patch-yes, it's LE...no, i don't care

Other than that it's standard orange and green cap. My purple undata was fighting with me today and didn't want its picture taken.

That is the other morph that I have seen called pokerstar I think. It was referred to as reverse-poker star earlier in the thread. I think it is a great morph!
