Anyone still interested in and keeping Micromussa?

FLipp · Jan 3, 2014

would you compare these to echinodas?
i have no luck keeping acans either in my 12gal.

dodgerblew · Jan 3, 2014

No. They are comparable to Lords

FLipp · Jan 3, 2014

sorry, im not an expert.
but what are lords?

dodgerblew · Jan 3, 2014

Acanthastrea Lordhowensis. Referred to as acans. Echinatas are also from the Acanthastrea family. Hope that helps

will take me a little bit to learn all these scientific names. lol

I remember back in the day JenDub and SkinnyChinaMan (Anthony) from AquaDesignz were the ones bring in all the micros.

Yep, I wonder if Jendub still has corals? Any of you guys remember her "pinky" acan lord? I think it went for $700-$800 for a one polyp frag which was an unheard of price at the time.

dont know if they have a hobby tank but Jen and Charles are not selling and happy being parents of two. Charles was selling their bins on RC not to long ago and told me it was the last of the stuff to go.

Ahh, cool to hear that. I was wrong, the "pinky" acan lord went for $600 for a one polyp frag. It was bright pink with a green circle.

I remember that one! It was a Japanese acan, right?

For those of you confused, here is a size comparison between lords and micromussa in a 2g cube. The green "hulk" micromussa in the center are micros and all the other acans are "lords" except for the red ones, they are bowerbankii.

Pardon the tiny frag sizes, it is only a 3 month old tank:
