MontiPora Frag

eep it dies? well it was a new frag and the broken part was dead so...lol does montipora encrust over it too?

 

Yes Monti's are Arcos.

If it's a small piece just ball up a small piece of Epoxy and work the ball into the rock. Then just stuff the frag into the ball.
You are using Marine Aquarium epoxy right?

If the coral is "happy", it will extend its polyps but w/o a picture, I can't tell you if what you're seeing it its polyps. I'm assuming you have a pink or green birdsnest? If so, the polyps should be the same color as the coral. What do the "polyps" look like?

 

yup, idk the name (tag gone) but it is the green with the white inside? lol...

Ya thats the stuff. You kneed it together and go to town. It usually takes me some swearing and about 3 tries before it stays.

They have cool purple stuff from 3 fishes now so it looks more like coraline.

there pink and they are like little pink kind of fuzzy things, like yellow polyps but smaller and pink.

 

i know that a coral can turn brown from lack of light but can it turn brown from too much light.

 

how long should i keep my lights on for sps corals.
