Montipora is the genus that convinces most reefers SPS isn't as scary as its reputation — fast growth, forgiving enough for an intermediate tank, and colors that actually hold under decent lighting instead of bleaching out. This frag spreads flat across rock in a warm salmon-pink that deepens under blue-heavy spectrum, and it'll start encrusting outward within weeks of settling in. A genuinely good on-ramp into the SPS side of the hobby.

Care level: Moderate · Light/Flow/Placement: High light, high flow, top-to-mid tank · Max size: Encrusting plate, spreads several inches per year · Diet: Photosynthetic, benefits from stable trace elements (calcium/alkalinity)
