Our Montipora Capricornis is growing extremely well and is way to large for our tank now. We are waiting until we have some time so that we can gently cut through the Montipora along the rock that it is attached to and remove it. We're hoping to find a good home for this one and it is too fragile to ship so.... anyone close by that might be interested in picking it up? Our goal is to remove it in one large piece and if we're successful at that... it will need a good size home to go to! At this time this coral is about 12 inches long, 6 inches wide and 4 inches thick with many different layers that are all growing well with incredibly thick growing polyps and ridges. We wish we had a huge tank so that we could keep this one! This coral has grown so well in our tank that we believe the little bit that will be left attached to the rock will just grow out again!
Photos taken under blue lunars because that is when we find the look of this coral to be at its most impressive. Our photo and post processing skills do not do this coral justice! The front edge of this coral is being kept cut back from the front glass so that it doesn`t attach. But once it is in its new home, just let it grow and it will quickly fill in.
Back in the day when we were just beginning, we remember being told by BigAl07 to keep our hands out of the tank...... and his advice is so Right On!! Thanks for all of your wise advice Al!!
