Acan containment?

[KH971]

In the past I have had only SPS dominated tanks, but I have started a 28 gal cube. I am really interested in some Acans and wanted to know if there was any way to contain them if I place them on my rockwork? Or will they just spread?

I think they grow slow enough and their tentacles are small enough that you can frag them every once in a while and be ok. Make some sweet cash!

Yep, whenever they start to move up the rock, just frag them and keep them lower.

I agree with the above.

They grow pretty slowly and I've never seen them harm anything; they are more likely to be sting victims from bubbles & frogspawn for example. You are unlikely to have a acan riot in your tank, but it would be nice IMO if that would happen!
