First Acan Lord

Mariner · Apr 9, 2009

Well, I've been slow to jump on the Acan bandwagon, but this piece had been at the LFS for awhile, and my wife gave me a gift certificate for my b-day, so.... what do ya think of it? Just put it in my tank about an hour ago.

Probably 3" x 5" or so. I think there are about 25 heads, some not in the pic.

Beautiful...watch it go crazy when you target feed it. Mine do!!

yeah they go nutz when I target feed mine... :D

quick tip if you ever frag acans.... use an inland bandsaw, it's precise enough to cut around the individual heads, so you don't damage any... ;)

very nice piece. nice to see one that has more than just a few heads. ive also been slow on the acan bandwagon, i dont have any. i did purchase one but it had been under some stress prior to the purchase and had recovered. but i guess the move was enough to restart the recession. so sad :(
well good luck with your new piece, its very nice! :)

It's in the 135g on a rock ledge near the bottom. Looks good there. As far as the age thing.... :crossedlips:

That is a nice pick up. Nice color, too. Which LFS?

How's it looking now a month or so later? What and how often do you feed it? M@ry Ruth bought one at the MGM swap for her tank. That's the only one we have. Looks like all the hype and ridiculous pricing is settling down a little now. I think I'd like to get into more Acans and chalices.
