If you have 2 different Acan Lords then they will grow good beside each other. Now if you put an Acan lord beside an Acan enchinata then the enchinata will kill the lord. Watch out for the enchinatas they will kill just about anything that's beside them. Now Acan lords grow peacefully with micros and zoanthids.

250MH 20K Reefoptics bulb. I have tried all sorts of bulbs and the reefoptics bulb is my favorite and it's cheap too. I haven't tried reeflux 12k yet but that's next on my list.

The darth maul and star wars palys are 2 completely different palys. Even the pattern is different.
The darth maul is bright orange with the black in it.
The star wars is mostly black with the hints of red in it.
If you see it in person you will know.

Yeah those purple ones are nice they glow under really high light. The pic is in kinda near the back of the tank. But it's a huge colony i might frag some of it off to sell or trade.

An update on the left side of the tank. I mounted some more corals on the rock. I have some sweet looking acans coming next week. I've been putting off adding the rocks in the center, as my nitrates and phosphates are high. The nitrates are starting to come down now from the last time i added rocks and i also added more chaeto in my refugium so that helped a lot. I stopped using Rowaphos like 2 months ago and now my phosphate is at .25ppm so i'm going to put the rowaphos back in the system. But anyways here are some pics. It hard to see but the coraline algae is starting to spread all over the rocks.
