Overview
Green Acan Echinata is a hardy LPS coral with a mix of greens, blues, and flashes of orange under actinic lighting. Its thick, fleshy polyps and encrusting growth pattern make it a bold and unique addition to any reef aquarium. This coral is known for its aggressive feeding response and strong sweeper tentacles, so it should be given ample space from other corals.
