Nope. Super Red from BerlinMethod. I got a 4 polyp frag in September.

Super Red from BerlinMethod.com


My frag is on the top left in this pic

March 2005




That's a big change.

Around $30AU.. equivalent to about $15-20US

We dont have it good! The best looking jawfish we can get is opistognathus scops. We pay $80-120 for L. Amboinensis, and $120+ for L. debelius. Dont get neon gobies, dont get half of the nice dwarf angels, have a pretty boring range of SPS, dont get ricordeas, you name it, we either pay a ****load for it or we dont get it at all! lol.

I bet if I lived there I'd want that stuff; rarity is relative

especially with oz's crazy quarentine laws, if you get caught bringing home some specimen they'll lock you up for a bit!

hi that bowerbanki acan. i got at a lfs. it is fleshy. its is like a oversized lord. kinda looks like lobo but its not. brahm said it is bowerbanki i am not good with ids. i only had it for a few days befoer i sold it to atlanticreef. i had to get rid of it. my girlie wasnt having it. lol.. anyhow, it looks like it buds babies liek the lord but ia mnot sure. since i only had it for a few days. the funny thing is that tony (atlanticreef) has one also it is green though. it is nicer imo then the one i had. the bowerbanki only fed at night. it woudlnt feed all the time like the lord so i dont know if it will grow like crazy. the guy i got it from said he got them from a wholesaler that owed him money. and tore his tank down he had alot of echinopora in his tank along with the bowerbanki. when i sawit i new it was diff. i though it was lord but i was wrong = )

Hi Richards,

Thank you for the selling the Acan Bowerbanki. It doesn't matter with me lords or not lords, I'm very interested and happy with your Acan Bowerbanki. Most of reefers came over my house, they have asked this acan and like it. I agreed with you that coral looks like lords and have many baby grew on the side.... and the color is very awesome (pink with light green). Most reefers have lords on hand, but I haven't seen this Acan Bowerbanki on their collection..

i agree, i have seen some cool looking favia. i like acans. but i think i like them because they reproduce so fast and i can trade/sell them and get alot of cool stuff in return/ anyhow. so i kinda see them as an investment.
