Rehype Posted December 28, 2015 Author Share Posted December 28, 2015 I need Acans like that in my life. Me too! I wish they were easier to come by....and obviously alot cheaper. Link to comment
PieMan2k Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Only reason I have acans as my first coral is the store messed up and put them in the 20 dollar drag section. Usualy they sell their colonies for 80 to 100 dollars Link to comment

Usualy they sell their colonies for 80 to 100 dollars I've had to just be really patient and sometimes settle for really small one headed or two headed frags. The only good thing is I have pretty good success with acans and they multiply rather quickly in my tank. Link to comment

Rehype Posted December 31, 2015 Author Share Posted December 31, 2015 Mexican Turbo snails are mans best friend. Emerald crabs help too, not sure how your little Lioness views crabs though, they could be a meal. Hey kat I took your advice and picked up some mexican turbos they are machines I think in a week or two they will have it all cleaned up. Link to comment

I would love to add one but I've heard they come with a cost. What's been your experience as "Reef Safe"? Link to comment

What's been your experience as "Reef Safe"? They dont bother hermits or snails but small fish or shrimp will become snacks in a heartbeat. Link to comment

Rehype Posted January 4, 2016 Author Share Posted January 4, 2016 Ordering a couple frags from a sale i think... What kind of lighting and flow and feeding do they require? Low to medium lighting, medium to high flow and if you want them to grow fast target feed them mysis or krill. Link to comment
