Unknown acan

[Bonz]

This acan has green eyes and an orange/reddish color under actinic lighting. Anyone know the specific name to this?

Looks like brain coral.

 

[Bonz]

No its definetly an acan, just dont know what kind

 

[Fishking22]

A colorful one?

Kind of hard to tell what they are called since there's so many. Maybe a Lord? Not sure..

What did they have it labeled as at the place you got it from?

 

[Bonz]

Just an acan. Its orange redish and has green mouth

 

[Zer0]

I know. Lordhowensis are types of acans. Usually pretty colorful.

Yeah... it's a Acanthastrea lordhowensis, but as far as a "name"... just make one up you like. That's all the naming gods do. How about "Bonz Limited Edition Purple Rimmed Orange Crush eating a Sour Apple". That kind of has a nice ring to it.
