Lunar Eclipse Rainbow Acan Coral - Care Requirements

Lunar Eclipse Rainbow Acan Coral is a Micromussa or acan large-polyp stony coral. This rainbow acan coral features fleshy polyps and glowing centers, making it a practical choice for reef keepers seeking a colorful LPS coral with moderate care needs.

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 and avoid sudden increases in intensity, which can stress a Micromussa or acan coral.

Flow

Use low to moderate indirect flow. Gentle, dispersed 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 placement in mind. Start with gentler light and flow, then observe its response before making changes.

Temperament

Allow space from neighboring corals. This semi-aggressive LPS coral may sting nearby specimens, so avoid crowding and account for potential contact as it settles in.

Feeding

Offer occasional small meaty foods if desired. Feeding is optional, and any food should be sized appropriately for the coral's fleshy polyps.

General Care

Maintain stable conditions and make changes gradually. Watch polyp appearance and response after adjustments to lighting, flow, placement, or feeding, and avoid sudden increases in water movement or light.

Give this coral room, stable conditions, and gentle acclimation to settle in well.
