Nice acans Willow! Do you have species name? Is that first one sub echinata(at least, I think thats the name, lol)? I've seen the second one before, but cant recall the name.

Well, I only have two small lords, lol. Looking to pick up some more! Unfortunately the pics arent very good representations of color, lol.

This one is not bad, but the indigo is more teal.

This one is infact teal and indigo, aside from the red ring(the dark one) you can see. My tank isnt really this blue, my camera is just garbage, lol.

The polyps on both, all around the edges, are now completely healed/full. I cant wait for new ones to start forming!

Can't wait to see more acans!

Sorry guys.. not fragging it just yet. The purple has faded quite a bit since i got it because Im only running 175W 10k Ushios but when I find some time to setup my 120 I am thinking of running radiums and the great purple/green contrast should look stellar again. :wink:

Ryan why don't we store it in my tank for now. After it colours up and your 120 is running I'll even give a piece of it back.:lol: I can pick it up tomorrow before I leave Edmonton.
