Yea I do. I have a decent spot for it too. How hard are acros?

 

[bribo12]

It depends on the kind. In all honesty though they aren't to bad. The ORA ones are pretty hardy if you wanted to try one. I have their blue voodoo and red planet and they both do well. However there are certain ones like acropora efflorescens that are quite difficult. I'd stick to the ORA ones to start with.

 

[05spooln]

I might give em a shot. But next is Birdsnest and duncan

 

[bribo12]

Just beware once you get your first acro, you won't stop there. It becomes an acro addiction

 

[05spooln]

Also, acans, are they extremely sloooowww at growing? Should I feed them lps food?

 

[bribo12]

Mine grow in phases. They will grow a bunch of new heads and then nothing for months. Then repeat. I'd give them a little food, mine enjoy that

 

[05spooln]

I mean it definitely looks happy but have no clue what to feed them. I tried brine with the pump off but the shrimp and snails crawled all over it and ate everything

 

[bribo12]

Yeah it looks great. Idk why it's not growing...have you looked at it when it's closed to look for any new heads?

 

[05spooln]

I think I found one last time I looked. Nothing like the other corals though. They are like weeds

 

[05spooln]

Ok maybe like three new heads. This was when it was first acclimated

 

[bribo12]

It definitely looks bigger

 

[05spooln]

Yea ok try to get some lps food and boost it a bit

 

[bribo12]

Just feed it like once a week though. It doesn't need a lot. I've been contemplating trying reef chili

 

[05spooln]

Brs? I think I saw that stuff

 

[bribo12]

Yeah I've heard good things about it.

 

[05spooln]

Hmmm might look into it. I just hope the shrimp and other tank mates won't clump all over again

 

[05spooln]

Climb*...

 

[bribo12]

Yeah my cleaner goes insane when I drop food in the tank. Stupid shrimp

 

[05spooln]

Successful feed with mysis. Had to move a few crabs in the process but a success nonetheless

And the zoos and getting much better

 

[bribo12]

Nice!! Love bloated acans lol. The zoos look much better
