Sunset Montipora Frag

$37.50

Turn up the heat in your reef with the Napalm Sunset Montipora Frag—a fiery variation that outshines the common Sunset Monti with its intense orange base and glowing neon green polyps. This encrusting SPS coral delivers bold, unmistakable color that won’t fade when given the proper care.

Unlike traditional Sunset Montipora, Napalm Sunset maintains a brighter, more saturated orange tone, verified through growth in various lighting setups. While some frags may initially display more green than orange—depending on where the colony was cut—this will shift as the coral grows and encrusts, revealing its signature napalm glow. For best coloration, we recommend placing this coral in high light conditions (200+ PAR) with strong, stable water parameters.

Note: This is a representative image, not WYSIWYG. Frags vary slightly in appearance but are guaranteed healthy and vibrant.
