Thanks very much for sharing! Looking at the growth you are getting from some and so little on the tenuis & a.florida I would suggest there is something going on in that area they are in since they are both growing together and those strains are not typically really slow growers. Like Brett said that humilis has really taken off, looks great!

Any suggestions? Only thing I can think of is not enough flow. What type of monti is the one you gave me Greg?

I am away in Mexico right now & using my Ipad with the "go to my pc" app which isn't great for scrolling through pictures on the forum so I will be able to better answer when I get back.:smile:

How long after you got your order did it die? Any idea what happened?

They both like lots of flow & light but it seems odd that both their growth has been so stunted for so long.:noidea:
As for the Monti, it both encrusts & plates and gets very orange. I don't have it anymore unfortunately and don't remember the species off the top of my head and will have to look it up when I get back to Calgary.

If I can remember correctly, it didn't last very long--maybe 2 weeks. Had it at the very top of the tank, lots of light & flow and it bleached away to nothing. Really liked the sky blue color of it and was a bit disappointed.

In the future please be sure to let me know if you have a problem with a coral you buy from me Right away so I can resolve the situation ASAP. My guarantee is stay alive for 10 days but if there is a piece having issues I am pretty reasonable to work with, especially if it died in two weeks it was likely having a problem within the 10 day period anyway. :biggrin:
