Yup sure do! Shoot me a pm
Found a couple of my montipora pics, got plenty more if I can find them. First pic is a shot from the under-side up towards the top of my 300g reef. almost looks like a shot you'd get while diving under the sea IMO, if I could dive that is, that's what I'd think i'd be able to see

Here's a few of my collection... Unfortunately I had MENB and they are all in a QT... They are clean now after 2 months of dips but lost a blue digitada and one pokerstar... Will keep them for one more month just to be sure. So hope my DT will be clean after 3 months without any monti

I guess I will chime in. I love the growth pattern of this one. The bump in the center is the original frag.
That is pretty cool growth pattern. Looks like a crazy mushroom at first glance.

It does. Here is a side shot. You can tell I pruned it back. It was starting to overhang, and shade out other tank mates. I have seen it listed with several names. But it is an incrusting coral typically. Unless it encounters another coral. Then it will start growing more like a digita. But with the look of a cactus. Not the colors of the more sought-after varieties. But under high light, say 500-600 par, the green turns pink. Here is a shot more from the side. I will post the pic of the pink one, if I still have it.

It's probably montipora confusa looks just like my colony that is getting out of hand that I need to remove.

Yes, I have seen it listed as that coral as well. Here is a picture of an earlier specimen, of the same colony. I was trying to push the boundaries of par. Using various leds in a 14000k spectrum. I increased intensity weekly by about 50 par. At approximately 450-550 par, it turned yellow. When the intensity reached approximately 800 par it turned pink. Unfortunately at approximately 900 par it began to bleach. It never recovered.
