Not too long ago(less than a month) a vendor on here posted a red montipora cap with a green coloration caused by some infection and was releasing a frag, does anyone remember this post or can help find a link too it? Much appreciated, thankyou!

A grafted red/green monti? WWC (World Wide Corals) regularly sells them.

It wasn't grafted, it was a red monti with some sort of infection that caused green streaks.

A graft is an infection of sorts. Such a graft could have been described as such to attract a buyer.

Well if it was in fact "infected" I sure hope a vendor on here wasn't selling it that way intentionally! I think you were pointed in the right direction ^^^^^ already. WWC Grafted Cap sounds like what youre after.

Its not a graft I promise, I know because I have something just like this happening to my red monti, A small streak is turning green, polyps and all, still grows, still looks healthy, but about 10 polys have changed to green in a slim line. I don't have any green montis or anything close to it that would have caused this, Im trying to find the thread to see what the infection was called. They were charging $300 a frag also...

And yeah, that description is exactly what a graft is. Call it whatever you want.
