Ya. It's a nice cap, purple polyps, but it's more of a landscaping issue if I have to cut it all out Kind of wrecks the symmetry of the area. We'll see, maybe it will stop. haha

Brad sorry to hear but here is my Theory,

month ago you re-scaped your tank taking out the center pillar and fragging and selling some colonies, maybe your green cap got so depressed you killed and gave away his friends he committed suicide?

Ya, I think I have pics somewhere. I'll look around, hopefully there's enough to save a large piece. If not, I have a smaller frag in frag tank.

It prolly has a fancy name.. I think it's a Flower Petal Monti.
I have one thats green like that with red polyps.. Strawberry fields Monti.. And then there is a bright green one that has more ridges than folds with orange/red polyps.. Chili pepper Monti.

Wonder who comes up with these names.

brad... My strawberry fields one is one a magnet and has encrusted up onto the glass.. The big petal on the glass is white this morning.. Who knows?
