I got a pretty good deal on my new acan. i purchased it over the weekend before the coral went online and it is very nice. I saw some really nice acan and duncan frags available as well, but I wanted a show piece coral. I got mine from http://justcoral.com/ in Ohio.

Nice ones RandyO, I'm getting a frag of that red cherry bomb from someone soon, although its probably a bit different then yours. One thing I have noticed with aussie acans is no 2 colonies are the same. Even on the same colony some polyps can be different.

Too bad I missed you at reef raft, are you coming back down when Jay returns from hand picking?

Yeah, I'll be heading back for sure.

Beautiful Randy, let me know if those centers turn green

Hey heuerfan,
Here's an Actinic shot of that Acan. You can see the one polyp with a green Center. It does not have the same White Edges like yours though.

And here's a shot of a frag of it taken with the flash.
You can see the baby polyp underneath has a green center.

Maybe they grow out of the green center. I know a lot of my lords have baby polyps that look completely different from the adult polyps.

Wow, those are orange, i thought they were red like mine. Try placing that frag under high lighting and see if the green comes out.

The green center of my colony faded under power compacts but since i've upgraded my lighting the green is coming back.

Randy, Did you make it this past Saturday?
A tank full of Aussie Acan colonies was a sight to behold....

I think I am going to turn my 40G breeder into an Acan Tank - hofully most will be Aussie Acans
