What type of coral could this be?

I was planning on bringing this coral but not sure of what it is... Lol

It is purple in color and looks like it covers the rock

Pretty sure it's some kind of Montipora

Mystic?

 

[Nav]

Even I was thinking Mystic but I they normally have red base and blue polyps if I'm right? (this one is blue base, red polyp)

 

[jonmos75]

I am not seeing a different colored polyps...look to be the same color....

I was starting to think Mike @Enderturtle might be right as I look at encrusting montipora....

What do you guys think???

Sorry @Nav & @Coral reefer I thought when you said mystic that a different type of coral not that is a type of monti.....I didn't know....lol

 

[Enderturtle]

too hard to tell colors from the picture.

There are a number of encrusting and plating montipora that come in different colors.

Mystic Sunset is a red base purple polyps encrusting montipora. I dont think jon has one unless this one is just unhappy right now? Browned out maybe?

 

[jonmos75]

I think I am just going to label this a purple encrusting montipora for the frag swap....

It has always been this way and has encrusted on this plug sense I had it so if its not happy at least it is still growing....
