I would'nt complain about something like that. I'm sure ther are 100's of people on here that will be more than happy to trade you for a brown polyp monti if yours colors up. Don't worry about it.

I would be suprised if the polyps don't turn red. It looks just how my wild colony looked before it colored up completely.

Montipora Danae.

Under 20k's, polyps will go orange, red, or purple.
