Okay i got this frag yesterday and loved the baby blue and neon green colors. So i knew it has to be apart of the monti or encrusting family but the lfs did not know what the name was. The first pic is the closest i could find of it after some web research but just wanted to be sure. Sorry for the photos but i should be getting some filters for Christmas if my fiance and family listened to me all throughout the month of me wishing i had some filters. Hopefully they heard me

The web picture is most likely Tubbs Stellata. Probably the Montipora Digitata form of it.

It is definitely not M. digitata as this coral has coenoesteal ornaments. Also don't be so quick to ID the species without ruling out similar looking species, such as M. carinata.
