The Acan Lordhowensis colony arrived healthy and vibrant. The electric blue polyps are stunning and have expanded beautifully in my tank over the past two weeks. I’ve noticed a significant improvement in the visual appeal of my reef setup.
Una James –
It’s a strong performer under moderate lighting. The polyps extend during the day and respond well to water flow. A bit more delicate than expected, so I’ve been cautious with feeding and water changes.
