Citrus Acan Lord

About this coral

Citrus Acan Lord is an LPS coral in the Acanthastrea group, typically kept in reef aquariums for its fleshy, meaty polyps and overall LPS presence. In practice, this coral is valued for its feeding response—many keepers enjoy offering small meaty foods to support growth and color. Use it as a focal LPS piece in a suitable low-to-moderate light area, paired with stable reef water quality to help it settle in and extend its polyps.

Features:

• LPS coral with fleshy polyps that commonly respond to feeding
• Generally suited to moderate lighting rather than very intense top-down light
• Often appreciates moderate water movement to keep the tissue clear without blasting it
• Acan-type LPS are commonly maintained by both light and regular feeding
• Works well as a mid- to lower-aquarium reef display coral due to its light needs
