Montipora Coral (Montipora spp.)
Lighting Requirements: Moderate to High
Water Flow: Low to High
Care Level: Easy
Placement: Middle to Upper Levels
Temperament: Peaceful
Montipora Corals are highly prized for their stunning range of colors and versatile growth forms, which can be encrusting or plating. These fast-growing corals can develop into colorful, dense mats or intricate plates that add depth and movement to your reef tank. Available in vibrant hues such as green, blue, red, orange, and purple, Montipora quickly becomes a standout feature in any aquarium, making it a favorite among reef enthusiasts.
Montipora prefers moderate to high lighting to bring out its full color potential. It can thrive in low to high water flow, allowing you to tailor its placement based on the specific dynamics of your aquarium. While it benefits from photosynthesis through its symbiotic zooxanthellae, occasional feedings of small plankton or coral foods can promote even faster growth and enhance its coloration.
Though peaceful, Montipora is sensitive to water quality and high nutrient levels, so stable water parameters are key to its health. Be sure to provide it with enough space to grow and avoid placement near aggressive species that could harm it.

Our Camera + Lens
- Camera: Sony a7 IV R (mirrorless)
- Lens: Sony FE 90mm f/2.8 Macro G OSS
- Macro glass lets us capture fine details like texture, polyp extension, and subtle color shifts without getting too close.

Color Accuracy
- We use a custom white balance so the photo matches what you’ll see under a clean, blue-leaning reef spectrum.
- Corals can look different tank-to-tank based on nutrients, spectrum, and flow — but we aim for honest, repeatable photos you can trust.
