What kind of acro and acan please

[Darylb]

Anyone know what sort of acro and acan this is? Got both for 45 today

 

[bribo12]

Are you looking for a species name or a hobby name? If species the acro will be close to impossible and the acan is an acan lord. Common names most likely they're unnamed. Just red acan and green polyp acro lol

 

[Darylb]

Easy enough haha would you say the acro is a heathy frag because of how it's encrusted the frag flug?

 

[bribo12]

Yup and the polyp extension looks good

 

[Darylb]

I turned the blues down they were pretty intense haha

 

[bribo12]

Lol it looks good under them though

 

[Darylb]

Yea it does but want it to grow well too I found out it may be a garf acro

 

[bribo12]

Acropora valida? Maybe if it turns purple

 

[Darylb]

Yea that's what some others have said we will see I been getting mixed reviews about it people saying it's high light and some say it's low

 

[bribo12]

If it is the tricolor it is an easy acro

 

[Darylb]

I guess over the next few weeks we shall find out haha

 

[Darylb]

Here is another pic of it lights have only been on for an hour how do you think it's looking now?

 

[bribo12]

Very nice. Definitely acropora valida! Seems to have put down some more base

 

[Darylb]

I'm just worried about the polyp extension on the actual stick some days it will be awesome and others it will be like none out but the base is always out :/ got me a bit stumped haha

Well since it appears to be growing I wouldn't worry much. You will kill yourself worrying over sps polyp extension lol

 

[Darylb]

Haha okay I'm gonna try another frag in a few weeks to see how it goes my chalice seems to be doing well
