FT Red Setosa

Tangled Knot · #1 12-28-2012, 04:44 PM

I have several decent size Red Setosa (branching type) frags I would like to trade for other SPS. Sorry, I don't want to sell. Trade only. I'm stocking a larger tank and need more SPS. Looking for blues and purples or anything else that's cool. Please PM if you would like to do some trades. Thanks.

Looks more like digitata. But maybe I'm wrong

Cheers

It's not a digi. I have lots of that also.
Picture is terrible. Colour is much better.

Red digi is near top center. Setosa is near the bottom and to the right.

I thought the same thing, but found lots of pics of branching setosa online

Setosa IS a branching and encrusting montipora. If your setosa never branches I would question if its a setosa at all. http://coral.aims.gov.au/speciesPage...ata/0529/view#

That said the frag on the right looks like digitata...some on the left look to be setosa...but yes a bit branch(ier) than most I've seen. Probably a flow thing.

Not sure if these are the same frags, but i sold Mark Orange Setosa frags a couple years ago.

Yes Wayne, they are from your original Setosa last year.

My setosa branches but more like balls but as it gets longer it gets fatter. I imagine that flow may affect the growth pattern
