Names that contain “Superman Montipora” and are not this coral: Reverse Superman, Superman Montipora Digitata, Superman Montipora Digi, Superman Digitata, Superman Digi. They are separate corals traded at their own prices, so read the animal rather than the label.
Encrusting Montipora, not a plating one: a deep blue to royal purple base carrying red to orange polyps. The colour contrast is the whole point, and a lavender-based version circulates as Purple Superman.
Before you buy one
Purple fades under low light and the coral becomes an ordinary brown crust. Placement matters more here than with most Montipora. Reverse Superman is the same two colours the other way round, red skin with blue polyps, so check which one a listing means.
Keeping Montipora
Encrusting or plating, and it will take the rock it is given. Superman Montipora is intermediate to keep at a typical PAR of 150–250 in moderate to high flow. A typical starting range for this type of coral, not measured on this one.
