Are there certain things i can do to make my acans grow in brighter colors or maybe even new colors? I have one thats is red and grayish, one large polyped green with a bright blue, and another one i cant remember...i will post pics later. My tank is a solona 34g i am getting a aqua illumination hydra LED lighting system for it. The tank has a few fish and mostly softies like ricordea, shrooms, and some sps like frogspawns and dendros.....the water quality is spot on every time i check it. I havent had the chance to check magnesium or alk but calc is 480ppm and the water doesnt fluctuate much at all. Everything is practically ideal for coral but how should i put it (shaded or open to light) and i know it should be mid to ground level and i might open up space at the bottom if its ideal....anything and everything to help these guys color up would be great. All my coral seem happy cause they open up quite large and the acans with tentacles (one doesnt have them) do eat.....ive had them for only a few weeks now and if i could get some really nice colors (maybe even rainbow ;)) that would be so awesome although most probably not.
