Description

Brown Scrolling Montipora Corals often grow in interesting shapes and whorls while attaching an encrusting base on rock. Brown Scrolling Montipora Corals are found in virtually every ocean in the world that has stony coral growth. If proper conditions are met it will grow quickly and is easy to propagate, or “frag” and make new colonies. Brown Scrolling Montipora Corals should be placed into well established, mature aquariums with good flow and intense halide lighting. These corals will lose color if there are nutrients present in the water making a Protein Skimmer an absolute “must have”.

A Brown Scrolling Montipora Coral will usually shift to another color depending on lighting, flow and water quality. Color range includes: orange, green, purple, brown, rust and tan. Often these corals will have a contrasting colored rim.

Diet

Though these corals are mostly photosynthetic, they benefit from small meaty foods for Small Polyp Stony corals, such as cyclop-eeze or even Blue Zoo Mix once or twice a week. Can be target fed with Kent Marine’s SeaSquirt Feeder, available in the Aquarium Supplies section of this website.
