Looking forward to the results

Feeding.
 
I am feeding 2-3 times a week.

I am now turning off all circulation for 10 minutes as it is definitely much easier to target when everything drops straight down.

I have before and after pics from todays feeding and will post once the camera dries off.

I am tracking my two acans, favia and chalice.

The favia and chalice frags have not grow in two years while feeding reef-roids.

Shots turned out great for Acan #2.... it is in an easier place to shoot. note the intense coloration it is getting. Wow. When I got #2 it was red with a purple-ish trim..... definitely gaining more color since starting to use Acan Plus.


I need to re=upload... something funny happened.... all pixelated. Must be the size I edited to.

Haven't fed any of my LPS before, what's a bottle of that stuff worth?

$19.99 available at any Red Coral franchise!

Wow! that's some awesome colors!
I don't have the Lords, but I am hoping that my little frags will grow up looking even half as good!

RedCoralEdmonton 12-21-2010 04:38 PM

well time to get some acan plus then!

Ya I tried it too.....Zoas seem to like it and I've noticed a few new polyps sprout up overnight. My Trumpet likes it too. I've tried it on my open brain and it shows a feeding response but the next day it always seems to look swollen in some places....not sure what's happening there. Oh yeah....don't be an idiot like me and mix it with ro/di water instead of tank water.....derrr. I've mixed it quite thick with some chopped up Mysis in there too and definately noticed some differences the next day

Swollen looking is good!

Fun with Acan Plus
 
Yup, swollen means it's eaten and is happy.... Insert burping sounds here...

Did you know this product has been painstakingly designed by a home boy.... Albertan, Canadian no less!

Jmes (on Canreef) background in health and nutrition is combined with a love of reef keeping. He has a passion for Acans and LPS that led to his experimenting for four years and creating a food that goes far beyond basic fodder and helps your corals thrive!

All too often we put too much faith in exotic or foreign labels... It's time to ditch our national modesty and stand up and recognize we have serious talent right here at home :-)

Let me put it this way.... Acan Plus is to mainstream foods as "Dyson" is to "Electrolux." OK, lousy analogy... but, it is profoundly different.

The Bunny :laluot_01: Acan Plus rules! Way to go dude!

p.s. Newly noted behaviour of our house cat... He comes running when I open the jar of Acan Plus.... he loves the smell!!! And no, I draw the line at feeding it to him LOL!
