Show Me Your Acan Lords

[humblebee]

Folks, such lovely acan lords you have.
I had a few nice ones about a year ago. But unfortunately most were wiped out within a month when they succumbed to some kind of disease that only affects acans. Allow me to post some pics of my former acans. So tempted to try them again.

I have a pretty small collection comparatively, but Im most proud of this colony though, grown from this back in 4\08:

I might be able to get some more scans soon from cherry corals but idk I think they are very over priced what do you think?

But they'll be nice! I got some nice ones from Cherry Corals before. Cherry Corals has a reputation for having some of the sweetest acans around.

Just be sure they've been in their systems for several months. Several weeks won't cut it. I'd want something 6+ months, better chance they'll hold their colors. Too bad the really nice ones aren't in stock several months. Unless you get the ones in their farm, but those are even more expensive. I was so tempted to buy the original highlighers, but they were upwards of $100 per polyp. I didn't have the funds at the time or I woulda pulled the trigger.

3 of the absolute nicest acans i have pretty much ever seen! the first and third pictures are my favorite. those are the scans i can only dream of. luckily i am starting a new nano system and i bet you can only guess what the shining star of that tank will be yup. SOME NICE ACANS!!!

Delight, you always have beautiful coral! I use to have so many acans but got some bad water about 1 1/2 yrs ago...my nitrates shot out the roof and killed most of them! I run 20k reeflux MH on half of my tank and Evolution LED 119 1 watt on the other half!

6 Bulb t5ho, now have them under LEDs. Color has changed (for the better). No pictures since the change though.

At first I thought the second pic was corals on a driveway or something lol
