Anyone still interested in and keeping Micromussa?

[FLipp]

would you compare these to echinodas?
i have no luck keeping acans either in my 12gal.

 

[dodgerblew]

No. They are comparable to Lords

 

[FLipp]

sorry, im not an expert.
but what are lords?

 

[dodgerblew]

Acanthastrea Lordhowensis. Referred to as acans. Echinatas are also from the Acanthastrea family. Hope that helps

 

[FLipp]

appreciate that man!
will take me a little bit to learn all these scientific names. lol

I remember back in the day JenDub and SkinnyChinaMan (Anthony) from AquaDesignz were the ones bring in all the micros.

Yep, I wonder if Jendub still has corals? Any of you guys remember her "pinky" acan lord? I think it went for $700-$800 for a one polyp frag which was an unheard of price at the time.

for sure.

dont know if they have a hobby tank but Jen and Charles are not selling and happy being parents of two. Charles was selling their bins on RC not to long ago and told me it was the last of the stuff to go.

Ahh, cool to hear that. I was wrong, the "pinky" acan lord went for $600 for a one polyp frag. It was bright pink with a green circle.

 

[dodgerblew]

I remember that one! It was a Japanese acan, right?

Yep, it was a Japanese lord.

oh rev!!!

For those of you confused, here is a size comparison between lords and micromussa in a 2g cube. The green "hulk" micromussa in the center are micros and all the other acans are "lords" except for the red ones, they are bowerbankii.

Pardon the tiny frag sizes, it is only a 3 month old tank:

*that, and you can pretty clearly see the size reference in my pic above w/ the standard eggcate.
