Starburst Monti – Explosive Color, Radiant Growth
The Starburst Montipora is a coral that lives up to its name—a brilliant explosion of color that lights up your reef like a firework frozen in time. With a bright orange to fiery red base and radiant yellow polyps scattered across the surface like stars, this encrusting Monti delivers maximum contrast and serious wow factor.
Fast-growing and easy to care for, the Starburst Monti thrives under moderate to high lighting and steady flow, where it forms smooth, colorful plates or encrusts rockwork with vivid saturation. It’s an ideal coral for filling in negative space, creating visual breaks in high-end SPS layouts, or adding a sunburst of warmth to cooler-toned reefs.
