davidr2340 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Here are mine... Nothing beats a BOC sale @ Zoanuts!!! I need help from the Acan experts!!!I know how to grow 'em, frag 'em, and keep 'em healthy, but I still have a lot to learn on ID. Can you guys help me ID these? Are they common? Rare? Thanks for furthering my education!! Looks like we have some of the same ones... Did you hit up the last Acan Lord BOC sale??? Link to comment

migs Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Need help with my acan lord and micromussa... I recently "adopted" some sick and dying lord (9 heads) and micro (4 heads)... they would not sell them to me or give any guarantee, but I convinced them to let me try to save them since they have been in their tanks for weeks with no luck. The acan lord is doing better, but the micro is still receding... I did a water change before introducing them... all my levels are great... I am trying to hand feed them liquidlife and added SeaChem Reef Plus in addition to phytoplankton... Any helps and tips to help my micro would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Link to comment
merfin70 Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 As a quick suggestion, shade and low flow until you see feeders. Then move them slowly back into better light. I'm currently re-cooping an Acan that I toasted in too high of a light location and its been responding well. It takes a while but they are pretty sturdy. Not sure I would encourage feeding unless you see the feeders are out and willing. Also, an Iodine dip can be helpful to speed things along on PO'ed tissue. Link to comment
migs Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Yikes!!! Thank you... I had them in medium flow and was trying to feed them with no feeders out... I moved both of them to the back of the tank... no really shade but definitely low flow and less light. I will let them be for a few days and see how they do. Thank you. Link to comment
