    Hey reefers,
    I am interested in buying a Monti from an online store, but would like some help with ID. It is described as a 'Scrolling Montipora', but it looks like a Sunset Monti to me. Can Sunsets be scrolling or are they strictly encrusting? I have attached a picture of the coral in question.
    Can anyone ID this for me? Thanks in advance!

    I believe it's encrusting but it's a nice piece no matter what. If you want scrolling look into montipora hodgsoni.
