Nice acans, I've heard acans are expensive, but not quite sure. How much did you get yours for and where? I would like to own acans, but from where im from, they are hard to come by.

I got them from Something Fishy Aquatics in Algonquin IL. It was 125 for the colony and it has about 20 heads. I thought it was a pretty fair price.
