  Special Requirements and Information:
The Montipora is organized with multiple ridges and bumps across it's plates. Since they have an irregular surface they do require a sufficient water flow to increase their contact with the column and thereby access food and nutrients. They can be placed virtually anywhere in your tank, but we recommend them being off the substrate and away from a high output light source as they can have difficulties if the temperature exceeds 80 degrees.
Feed anytime during the day. Once they're accustomed to your tank, they can be introduced to frozen foods such as chopped blood worms, artemia or squid. Use a turkey baster to supply the foods to guarantee feeding.
Non-aggressive and an excellent addition to any tank large enough to allow growth.
