Acan Question

[Zuska]

How can i make my acans grow in colonys from these frags?

-I cant put them on rocks for them to grow right?

-What can i do for the acan tissue to grow onto a flat surface?

any info would be good. thanks

place them on a flat surface, and feeding them will help them to grow faster

in the past I grinded a flat piece of live rock (made a crater in it)so that the acan frag fits into it glued it in place and the acan would grow out nice and flat

Do they make mysis shrimp in different sizes? Small enough to feed polyps?

Make a slope around Acan with reef putty...like a round ramp

i feed my acans and they have babie heads on the sides growing but no more room for them to grow onto to somthing.

any kind of cement i can make or some clay i can put aside onto these frags so the tissue of the acan can just grow onto it. how do you people do it?

 

[pdnyc69]

glue on anything. i feed mine chopped up clam once a week and the growth rate is unbelievable

 

[pdnyc69]

any piece of rock that is

marinedepot/any local vendor should have saltwater epoxy.
