Husbandry

Similar Species: Montipora aequituberculata, which is primarily distinguished by its lack of coenosteum ridges. Montipora delicatula has thinner plates, less regular coenosteum ridges and smaller corallites. These species may be hard to distinguish unless they occur together. See also M. cebuensis, M. friabilis and M. mactanensis.

Bekämpft und überwächst Montipora digitata! Schnecken oder kleine Seesterne werden, falls sie nicht von den Tellern von alleine weg kommen, ebenfalls sterben und verdaut (?).
Uie Unterseiten sind bei mir mit hellen, fast durchsichtigen, Schwämmen besiedelt. Überwächst die Steine als auch die Scheibe.

Für sehr farbige Montiporas sind Spurenelemente sehr wichtig für die Intensität der Färbung. Verträgt auch eine recht starke Strömung.
