Buy whatever you think looks good They are pretty easy to keep. Care is pretty much like most Faiva etc. Honestly I've paid way more so 29.99 is good. They are finally really starting to fall in price.

Re: Ima Gettin An Acan Lord Yo!!

You can't tell 100% without looking at the skeleton. However, at $30 I would buy it if you like what it looks like, not because it is an A.lordhowensis.

Re: Ima Gettin An Acan Lord Yo!!

I just got an acan frag. It seems retracted what type of care should I look for? How long does it normally take them to recover?
