They are a great choice for adding a splash of color to lower flow, lower light areas of your reef aquarium. Each polyp is approximately 1 1. 5 cm across. Baby polyps will grow around the base of established polyps. Acan Lords are great beginner corals. Placement: Mount the Aussie Hulk Acan Lord using IC gel glue, or putty, on an exposed rock or ledge in the lower two thirds of the aquarium where they will receive moderate currents and low to moderate lighting. Leave 2 3" around this coral as it has tentacles that can sting nearby corals at night. Feeding: Although symbiotic algae called zooxanthellae hosted within them supply some of their nutritional requirements through photosynthesis they do benefit from supplemental feedings of Oyster Feast, mysis shrimp, or finely chopped meaty foods. Lighting & Flow Requirements: Aussie Hulk Acan Lord Coral requires moderate water flow and low to moderate lighting (PAR 120 250). T5's, Metal Halides, or LED's can all grow Acan Lord Corals when the proper PAR levels are provided. We recommend a 14 20K color spectrum for best coloration. Care Level: Easy Lighting Requirements: Low to moderate (PAR 120 250) Water Flow: Low to moderate Aggressiveness: Peaceful Range: Australia Family: Mussidae Water Conditions: 75 80 F; sg 1. 024 1. 026 (1. 025 is ideal); pH 8. 1 8. 4 Ca 420 440 ppm, Alk 8 9. 5 dKH, Mg 1260 1350, Nitrates <10ppm, Phosphates, < . 10ppm Water Chemistry: It is important that proper calcium (420 440 ppm), alkalinity (8 9. 5 dkh run it 7 8 if you are carbon dosing) , and magnesium levels (1260 1350 ppm) are maintained. Raising magnesium levels gradually up to 1400 1600 ppm can help to combat algae outbreaks, just keep CA and Alk in line as you raise the Mg. Nitrates should be below 10 ppm and phosphates should be below . 10 ppm. We recommend doing a water change when Nitrate levels rise to 10 ppm. It is important to replace your phosphate media when phosphates rise to . 10 ppm. Media Reactors make the most efficient use of your phosphate media by fluidizing it. Dosing: Vivid Aquariums uses and recommends dosing pumps to automate the dosing of additives and keep your levels more constant. A dosing pump can alleviate the chore of manually dosing your aquarium with Ca, Alk, & Mg 2,3, or 4 times per week and will benefit your aquarium by keeping your levels constant through frequent small additions of Ca, Alk, & Mg. Our tanks all progressed when we switched from 3 manual dosings per week to 70 automatic dosings per week and we got a lot more work done.
