You'll enjoy the Acans. They like low light and are easy. They also like to eat and are fun to feed.
Acans (technically Micromussa lordhoweensis) are amazing corals. All the acans in my Acan garden came from AquaSD.

I'm making an acan garden as we speak. Currently they are all on racks just letting them settle. Ive got to figure out exactly where I want them.

You have lots of pretty acans though. I went to the LFS today and almost bought 2 Acans in there but for the price I could buy 4 or 5 on AquaSD so I didn't. Maybe ill buy 4 or 5 tomorrow if there's a code!

Haven't had any yet on the roughly 80 other AquaSD frags I've received in previous shipments.
I saw some in one of the pics today of a frag. They were great looking palys. Like I said though just check em and scrape it off. It doesn't bother me! I always check my frags for anything weird. My LFS has aiptasia pretty bad so I'm used to it.

I always check all my frags. Luckily I have quite the cuc, so only nuisance algae we've dealt with was dinoflagellates from the nitrates bottoming out, and they're pretty much gone now that we fixed that issue. As for other pests like pyramid snails, flatworms, red bugs, nudibranchs, and zoa spiders, between dipping corals and having multiple Halichoeres wrasses, never had an issue.

@CrimsonTide Haha...when my tanks crashed in Feb. I needed to get rid of all the Death. I have picos and found 2 dead 4" long bristle worms. And I stuck my hands in there!

@Fishfreak2009 I always find bristle worms in my orders. Some living right inside the corals. But that's fine with me! The more crawlies in the tank, the better! And since my sand is deader than a door nail, I hope there are LOTS of them!

Yeah I have a smaller reef tank so no cool wrasse. I wish though. Theyre like the raccoons of the fish tank world. They'll eat anything.

The other night I saw one that had to be 8" nightmare fuel. I wear gloves when I reach in my tank thankfully.

Between my timor and my radiant no pest gets past them.
