Acanthastrea Lordhowensis

*Get TWO frags of this rare jewel of the sea now*

Hello all,

Up for bid today is not one, but TWO different and amazing frags of Acanthastrea lordhowensis, the much sought after acan lord.

The first frag is a stunning green and red striped acan. I originally obtained it from seareef228, here on ebay. If you look at his past auctions you can see a picture of the mother colony. This one grows very fast. There are about 9 polyps on this piece and a few more that look like they are forming. 1 polyp is a full adult and the rest are sub-adult, but will be full adults in a matter of a few more weeks. It has put on 5 polyps in just 2 months, with very little feeding.

The second frag here today is an extremely rare red/orange with purple highlights acan. It is possible that this one may be an even rarer and VERY difficult to find (even rare in Japan) micromussa. This is not some favia that has just had micromussa slapped on it to increase the price. Micromussas look just like acan lords, but there adult polyp size is just a little smaller. This one was also from seareef228. There are 9 polyps on this one. 1 polyp is a full adult and the rest are sub-adult, but will be full in a matter of a few more weeks. This one has put out 6 polyps in 2 months with barley any feeding.
