Pink strip Acan MIni colony

Acanthastrea (or Acans for short) are a colorful and popular coral imported mainly from Australia and Indonesia. Relatively recently several members of this Genus were reclassified. Acanthastrea lordhowensis was moved over to into Micromussa and Acanthastrea bowerbanki was reclassified into Homophyllia. Still, the hobby regularly still refers to both of these corals as Acanthastrea.
