I LOVE Acans. There's a thread on RC where a guy (from Ontario I believe) has his tank almost completely stocked with Acans. That thread got me hooked.

I remember that thread, when I saw it I seriously thought about setting up a all acan tank. Such unique colors available.

Close, but not quite John. Well from what I can tell anyways. The one I've got has alot more green and blue, I just can't get it to show in the picture.

I can't remember what you said you were running bulb wise. But Geissman True Actinic or Blue + whatever it's called would make your tank pop more. Or Fiji Purple.
But to be honest, I like the way your tank looks now. The colours are genuine

..unless you were asking if the acans in the actinic shots are the ones from you...in which case yes. Both of them

yeah, i have gone over this idea, over and over again, wheather or not to add actinics, probably just keep with the KZ approach and keep with the new gens, and fiji's

The new acan changes colour by the hour it seems...



Still havn't named him, but look at that mug!


Meet Edward (my Godson named him)
