orange/red digitata turned pink

"digitata" means finger. In other words its a
branching coral. The genus is montipora. So the
species is Montipora digitata. There are however a
lot of different types of montipora. Some, I think
are the same species of montipora. Corals growing in
different environments will grow differently and
this can make it look like a different species. but
anyway that's getting off topic :-)

By the way montipora digitata is the most common
montipora sold. It's nice fast growing coral. It
works great for giving the fish something to swim in
and out of.
