Take a look at my friend Alliene-Eye Orange Acan. I never seen this orange with neon green eyes before...Awesome Orange Acan..Do you believe if you put this under antenic or moon light..the green eyes will stand out...

Elite · #**531** 05/15/2005, 12:19 AM

How can you tell which one is Favia and which one is Acan?
They look almost the same from the picture..

AtlanticReef · #**532** 05/15/2005, 01:45 AM

My thought is Orange Acan, but I need the help from RandyO since he is knowledgeable...Where are you Sir?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Tony

That skeleton looks pretty bumpy. I'd say acan sub-echinata for sure. Definetly not a favia.

Here's a pic of my brown/tan striped sub echinata. Its developing a purplish-blue ring in the centers.

I've had it for about three months now.

AtlanticReef · #**534** 05/15/2005, 04:23 PM

Hi Zeppelin,

Thank you for your confirming....

Wow! Your Acan is also looking awesome...I wish having a piece in my collection tank.

zeppelin · #**537** 05/16/2005, 04:13 PM

Not 100% on that one Tony, but I'd agree with Zep. Looks like A.subechinata.

Thank you Randy for your confirming! I got a frag from him...they look really nice in my tank and under antenic or moon light...the Alliene eyes/bulleyes are glow up...crazy piece.

sbluscombe · #**540** 05/16/2005, 09:01 PM

shane 1111 · #**541** 05/16/2005, 10:10 PM

Jus Reefin · #**542** 05/16/2005, 10:18 PM

I have 2 that have purple in them here is one. You can see the purple in the little polyp to the left. The piece in the top right has a purple center and grows and eats like a pig
