Ocean aquatics had a nice size frag of purple
Monti I am sure they would be happy to ship

i have about a 1/2" + growth per month, depending on the monti. the green with purple grows very fast and the red grows thicker for me but slower than the green. my all green went from a all brown piece i got from another member to completely green now it has also grown new growth of about 1/2-3/4" in the last month.you can see the new growth in their edges:)

new growth looks a bit white at first then gets color? atleast thats what I am seeing lol

yes the edges will stay whiteish and even the green on the ends should be more vibrant and bright while the rest will be darker. colour has alot to do with where you keep it and what spectrum lighting you have it under:)


your monticap should be the same colour throughout except for the very edges sometimes are less bright from new growth:P


if you want to experiment with the shape it grows it break off small pieces and place them on the mother cap somewhere else, they will fuse together and grow in a different direction.

i am actually breaking off a bunch of orange small pieces to toss on my green and have them grow together for awhile:)

did not know any of that lol
would I have to glue it down to the mother colony? how quick do they fuse? :lol::redface:

im not sure ive never glued it my monti is large and in a cupish shape so i just put an orange piece to the top of it where it sat in place it is now fused together, i want to break small ones and place them in different places to see what the outcome is:)

Making some FrankenCaps? :lol:
Probably would looks sweet!

more of no where to put caps too lol im guessing you seen fragenstein ?? my little creation of evil!!:P:P:P
