Coral ID (w pic)

Picked this up at LFS as it was on the frag rack for 10.99, LFS employee wasnt sure what exactly it was other then it was a "Monti". So what does it look like? A Cap, encrusting etc..?

its a cap it looks pretty browned out my guess would be a blue polyp green cap

but if your lucky it could be a flower petal (believe thats the name) and that is a gorgeous yellow color with blue polyps either way it is a montipora capricornus.
