Coral ID?

[Mihai]

I found this frag laying down in one of the tanks at my LFS - half dead. It seems that it recovered nicely (except for the part in the middle). So... what is it?

Thanks,
Mihai

The growth tips, polyps and overall structure sure lends itself to being a monti digi. in my book

I concur

In case you don't know what "monti digi" is, that's Montipora digitata.

Looks like the green variant of M. digitata with some color loss.

Here is a sample of one a bit greener:

It crossed my mind: I have two other digis (one orange and one green), but this didn't seem to be very close to the other: it's thinner and has smaller tips. I guess that it's a bit variable in the growth form (the other two are a bit different as well).

Thanks,
M.
