zep,
I think yours is a bit too smooth for ech or sub ech. I would think it is a Favia as well.

Pick this up about one week ago...

Small colony about 9 heads...

I have seen lots of Red/Green but this one has more Red in it than other Red/Green... I was going to name it Strawberry but someone is using that on micro already : ). Maybe Strawberry blast : ) how is that?

Anybody seen this morph before?

it was FS at Roe's

Jus Reefin · #**483** 05/10/2005, 04:22 PM

I have seen a few that are similar

Dumb question, but do all Acan Lords look like that (mdt178's pic)-with the completely separate polyps and tissue attachement between polyps? Don't have one yet, but that would certainly make identifying them a lot easier. Every time I see them, they are fluffed, so I never see the areas between polyps...

When deflated yes they do

The polyps in that pic look a little ticked off, when they puff up, it should resemble something like this-

AtlanticReef · #**489** 05/10/2005, 06:55 PM

The new one (American lords)..

not Taiwanese lords.

AtlanticReef · #**490** 05/10/2005, 07:00 PM

Another one of Acan Lords...

brahm · #**491** 05/10/2005, 07:00 PM

we have acan growing in american waters.. shweet..

Maximus · #**492** 05/10/2005, 07:16 PM

Jen, is that purple and green a "non-indo" lord?

JenDub · #**493** 05/10/2005, 07:25 PM

non-indo indeed

gflat65 · #**494** 05/10/2005, 07:31 PM

That one is pretty sweet, too. Not a pink a green, but I like it almost as much

.

JenDub · #**495** 05/10/2005, 07:37 PM

oh that pinky....I can't tell you how many people ask about that one. If only I had a whole colony of pinky....the possibilities.

AtlanticReef · #**496** 05/10/2005, 07:56 PM

we have acan growing in american waters.. shweet..

We should call all of Acan lords with the name Indo-American or Japan-American lords since they are growing under american water and using American equipment..

Here is my colony... started as two... and now is ten! This is a horrible picture as there is a lot of algae growth. These guys survived 96 degree temps for 12 hours. I would call that hardy as I have lost almost all of my sps due to that incident. Something with the temp swing caused a nutrient release and a very bad algae bloom. I am in the process of rebuilding my reef and will be picking up another clean up crew ASAP. Until then, it will have to look horrible. Anyway, here is the pic...

AtlanticReef · #**498** 05/11/2005, 12:30 AM

Wow! They are really awesome...I just traded with Vpham24 six heads yesterday...

Narkon · #**499** 05/11/2005, 07:43 AM

Wow, 96, man that is bad, what happen to cause that? AC went out.

Nice that they survived it though, they look good.

gotdesl · #**500** 05/11/2005, 08:15 AM

The temp probe, that controls the heater, got flipped out of the water while I was cleaning. I didn't notice it until the next morning. Since the ambiant temp was 72, the heater plugged away all night.
