Re: Acanthastrea Lordhowensis II

I never had this coral before. How will it fare in a low to nil nutrient system?

Re: Acanthastrea Lordhowensis II

I'll update it's growth in a few months. So far it's grown more heads, but hasn't grown anymore skeleton that I can see.

I would say mine's in a low nutrient system. Seems to be doing just fine, but I've only had it for 3 months.
