General info about Outcast Monti
In general, corals coming from the genus Montipora takes several coral lifeform like submassive, laminar, foliaceous, encrusting and branching. Their appearance and coloration is usually mottled in nature. They have corallites that are considered one of the smallest as far as the family of corals is concerned. Their walls usually has an elaborate structure and has a porous texture.
As for the Outcast Monti, they are predominantly colored pink with violet polyps. This are the water parameters in cultivating Outcast Monti:
- Calcium: 400 - 450 ppm
- Alkalinity: 3.2 - 4.5 MEQ/L
- Phosphates: 0
- Magnesium: 1350 - 1500
- Strontium: 10
- Temperature: 72° - 78° F (22° - 26° C)
- Salinity / Specific Gravity: 1.024 - 1.025
Outcast Monti Diet & Nutrition
The Outcast Monti get its primary nutrition from a symbiotic algae called zooxanthelae that is living within their tissues. But despite this symbiotic relationship with an algae, we still recommend you do supplemental feeding by adding mysis and brine shrimp in the water.
Fragging / Propagating Outcast Monti
A mature tank is highly recommended in propagating Outcast Monti. They should be set on the middle or bottom part of the tank.
Flow / Lighting Requirements for Outcast Monti
The Outcast Monti requires moderate lighting and moderate waterflow.
Outcast Monti Origin
The Outcast Monti can be found in the waters of the Indo Pacific Ocean. They are considered as a vulnerable species listed under Appendix II of the CITES list.
How to Acclimate Outcast Monti
The Outcast Monti are purely marine, therefore, salinity must be maintained thoroughly at 1.023 to 1.025 specific gravity.
