Ok so the other day I went to my LFS (Ocean State Aquatics) where they have a deal of buy 3 frags from the 20$ bin it's 50$ so of course, I had to. While I was looking through the corals I thought one of the smaller polyps was particularly colorful and even though it seemed like a stupid question at the time I had to ask if it was a rainbow. They told me it was and they throw single polyps in the 20$ bin occasionally just to see if anyone will pick up on it. The frag isn't the most amazing looking yet but I'm willing to gamble on the 20$ if ends up dying. I'm and hoping it pulls through though and I'm super stoked on the find. Just felt I should share here as everyone else in my life that doesn't care about coral is tired of hearing me talk about it.

nice find. frag isnt looking too great, but being that you have another acan right next to it doing well im sure it will recover in no time.

Yea I know the frag it was next to was almost a goner too till I put it there in the tank so I'm hoping it will have similar results.
 
Only has been a day so far and I'm seeing some improvement so things are looking good.

Nice buy and frags!
 
Make sure to keep her in low light so she keeps her sweet colors. Good find~

Yea I have them at the bottom of the tank under some palys that like to stretch on and overhang so they catch a little shade from them and pop.
