best monti caps?

[gholtmeyer]

I am starting to stock my tank. What I have in it, mostly tester corals, are doing great. So, I am ready for monti caps. I am wanting a green/purple rimmed as well as red/orange. What are the best colored versions to look for? I have heard/seen the Tyree and Ling Si versions. Any other named varieties? Or other colors worth having? Not going to put the grape monti cap in the tank this time.

Google search the Reeftech Starburst Cap. Another nice one IMO is the Blue Polyp Cap.

the starburst cap is nice, i have a nice colony of it. it has never looked as good as some of the pictures online for me though.

James, I put mine down low and towards front of the tank so you can appreciate the little yellow polyps. Looks good and definitely can distinguish it from the Orange Cap.

I actually have mine a little too high (it is still an awesome coral and you can tell it is not a regular cap but i have yet to see the yellow really pop. Could have to do with my crappy polyp extension.
