Overview

'Sunset Montipora' is a plating Montipora trade morph whose red polyps stand out on an orange body. Named for its sunset-like coloring, it is hardy and fast-growing, suiting entry-level SPS keepers. Keep it under moderate-to-strong light and flow; stronger light tightens the coloration. As a trade morph, we treat it here as a lineage.
