Attached are a frag and mother colony held under identical water condition, different lighting. The frag is under T5, mum is under HQI 14000K Giesemann plus actinics.

I do not believe that the picture starting this thread is M. monasteriata, rather M. danae, M. verruculosus or M. palawanensis, possibly M. cebuensis.
