moderate to high light and sand bed with moderate flow for the acans, i would suggest the same for the Cynarina/doughnut.

thanks.. I'm runing out of space on my sand bed fast... I have 2 koralia 4 on my tank(40g) do you think it would be best to take them out and use the seio 620's.. I have 2 of those also.. any id on the acan's?

Looks like a round variety of Trachyphyllia to me.

Is it really a donught/meat coral?

agreement on the trachy, while some cnydarians will look close the larger mouth kinda makes the difference. low to moderate flow, feed the thing and it'll be happy

moderate flow for the acans with supplemental feeding if you want them to take off... sand bed definately for the trachy... as far as the acans go it's your call but keep in mind moderate light... avoid super intense or super low. best to get them off the frag plugs and on to a rock in such a fashion that they can "cap out" or grow on to said rock. Think in your head... "Acan Islands"

Sorry I just wanted the excuse to use the word "Acan Islands"

hrmm acan islands
