Purple monti going green
Maybe it is sympathetic because I am a MSU Sprtan fan, but this purple encrusting Montipora I recently bought is turning green. Any ideas why?

"greens" can be from higher iron levels than its used to..
Is that just its "new growth" color?

I don't think it is new growth since it is an encrusting coral and the green is appearing everywhere.
