Lunar Eclipse Rainbow Acan Coral is a Micromussa or acan large-polyp stony coral. This WYSIWYG acan coral features rainbow coloration and glowing centers across fleshy polyps. Its LPS care profile suits reef keepers prepared to provide stable conditions, moderate placement, and thoughtful spacing from nearby corals.

This is a WYSIWYG coral, meaning the coral shown in the photo is the exact piece you will receive.

Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Low to moderate lighting
• Flow: Low to moderate indirect flow
• Placement: Lower to middle reef areas
• Temperament: Semi-aggressive
• Care Level: Moderate

Lighting

Provide low to moderate lighting. Acclimate gradually, especially when moving it into brighter conditions, and avoid sudden increases in light intensity.

Flow

Use low to moderate indirect flow. Gentle, varied movement helps keep the coral clear without exposing its fleshy polyps to direct, aggressive current.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas with moderate spacing. Start in a lower-light location during acclimation, then adjust placement gradually if needed.

Temperament

Allow room between this semi-aggressive coral and neighboring corals. Maintain spacing to reduce contact and potential stinging issues, particularly around other fleshy LPS corals.

Feeding

Feeding is optional. Occasional small meaty foods can be offered when appropriate, while avoiding excess food that can compromise water quality.

General Care

Maintain stable conditions and observe the coral after changes in lighting, flow, or placement. Make adjustments slowly rather than all at once, and keep its fleshy polyps clear of direct, forceful water movement.

Acclimate patiently, provide space, and make care changes gradually.
