Hi all,
Had this in my frag tank forever, not sure what it is but it has just started showing some small blue polyps on it. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance for any info.

Montipora capricornous me thinks, and a nice colored one at that!
Here is a Montipora danae could be that I guess.

thanks all, was looking through other pics of the danae in google and found a few more that look like mine.

Yep, my display is heavily packed with sps. Its a 65g with 2 250w 14k hqi bulbs and 4 T5HO actinics. Also sump/refuge/euro skimmer and around 80lbs LR. I've finally got the tank tweaked and everything is growing like crazy. Paramaters are running at Ca 450 ALK 11.5 Mg 1350 PH 8.4 and all the nasties untracable ;)
GRabbitt What's the Kelvin rating on your bulb(s)?
Not what i like for sps but it's my frag/QT tank. I have 1 175 MH 14k HQI bulb and 2 65w PC actinics on it. Things really color up better once i move them over to the display.
