Native to the Indo-Pacific, these corals form impressive colonies with striking patterns of red, orange, green, blue, or purple. They are relatively hardy and adapt well to stable reef environments, making them a popular choice for hobbyists seeking to add visual depth and character to their aquariums.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Care Level<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Easy to Moderate. Acan Lords are generally forgiving but thrive in stable conditions. They are semi-aggressive and can extend feeding tentacles at night, so adequate spacing from other corals is essential.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tank Essentials<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A minimum tank size of 75 litres (20 gallons) is recommended. They prefer low to moderate, indirect water flow and moderate lighting (50-150 PAR). Acans do best in the lower to middle sections of the aquarium, on sand or stable rockwork.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Diet<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While photosynthetic, Acan Lords benefit greatly from supplemental feeding. Target feed meaty foods such as mysis shrimp or coral pellets 2-3 times per week, especially at night when they extend feeding tentacles.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why Buy From Us<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We offer healthy, vibrant Acan Lord corals sourced responsibly.
