    just traded my first frag today with a local reefer . traded him a good size piece of blue polyped birdsnest for this purple haze frag.

    what kinda of lighting you all think a coral this color prefer. lower light, or is it blues like higher light ...? cant remember?

    If memory serves me right, they need strong light. Great score there, I also like the baby brittle star. Luna

    hmmm.. First, That is a REEEEEEALLY nice Superman Monti / Purple haze! I am still looking for a frag with those bright colors. GOOD SCORE!
    I know that they like HIGH light but I was also told that the bright light bleaches them like your shirt in the sun. Monti's LOVE LOVE LOVE light though... and good flow. You can always start it high, get some growth and it you see the color fading, lower it and it'll come back. Blue is a hard color to keep. It is VERY postion specific.

    NICE though!
