I love it when the tentacles come out as the nlues come on. I’d like to pick up a head of the deep purple one I saw at @AquaSD recently

Some of my acans. And my island!

Very nice! What is your secret to keeping them so healthy. How often do you feed and with what?
Thank you.

When I feed my fish frozen they catch some
Of what falls. Otherwise every few weeks with reef roids.

Here’s my acan garden!! Love them they are one of my favorite corals!! These were mostly all grown in my tank from 2-3 polyp frags except my big red striped one.

Absolutely beautiful. I plan on focusing mainly on zoas, but would luv to have 1 or 2 acans as I understand they will work well with zoas.

Stunning! Yeah I like purple too...I thought mine was more purple but seems he's more green. I need to tinker with my light settings some to see if colors will change.

There are not mine but I have been looking for it. I know it came from WWC.

Teal is at the top of my list! I love a teal acan! It's one of those colors that you just don't see very often in a reef tank and I NEED IT!

Hopefully they drop some nice scans we can snag in their live sale this weekend!

Just beautiful!! may I ask about your lighting? As much detail as you wish to share would be wonderful. I just won the AquaSD acan package and think I really need better lighting,
Thank you in advance

Mine are under my Kessil 360s and they’re doing well. I’ve never felt as though they need too much lighting

I also love acans. I have always struggled with them though and never understand why. Can get them and have them for a year growing and all then they just go down hill. I recently got another one to give it another go so will see. I have always guessed I wasn't feeding enough. Have torchs, favia and chalices though no issues.

 

[Steven Garland]

Helllllllllll yeah,those are awesome additions to the thread.

Simply Amazing. Beautiful Acans. Would love to know if tgey came that way, ie are they the type which are so huge or did each polyps get this big over time?
