Blue Ice Asian Acan Coral Colony – WYSIWYG
Add an icy display of blue, mint, lavender, and purple coloration to your reef with this Blue Ice Asian Acan Coral Colony.
This premium colony features numerous fleshy polyps arranged in a dense, rounded formation. Each polyp displays its own intricate pattern, creating a striking mosaic appearance under reef lighting.
Asian Acan Corals are popular among LPS collectors for their vibrant coloration, manageable care requirements, feeding response, and ability to develop into impressive multi-polyp colonies.
This is a WYSIWYG coral, meaning the specimen pictured is the exact colony the customer will receive.

What Does WYSIWYG Mean?
WYSIWYG means What You See Is What You Get.
Unlike listings that use stock or representative photographs, the coral shown in the primary product images is the exact specimen being offered for sale.
Because this is a one-of-a-kind coral colony, only one specimen is available. Once it sells, it is gone.
Natural coloration, shape, and inflation may vary depending on aquarium lighting, camera settings, viewing angle, water conditions, feeding response, and the coral’s level of expansion.
General Care Information
Care level: Beginner to intermediate
Coral type: LPS
Lighting: Low to moderate
Water flow: Low to moderate and indirect
Placement: Sandbed or lower to middle areas of the aquarium
Temperament: Semi-aggressive
Aquarium maturity: Established reef aquarium recommended
Place the colony where its fleshy polyps can expand naturally without receiving harsh or direct water flow.
Begin with lower lighting and gradually acclimate the colony if it will be placed under stronger reef lighting. Excessive light can cause stress or reduced coloration.
Provide adequate space between the colony and neighboring corals. Acan Corals can extend feeding or defensive tentacles and may irritate nearby specimens.
Stable salinity, alkalinity, calcium, magnesium, temperature, and nutrient levels are important for maintaining healthy tissue, skeletal growth, and coloration.
Supplemental feeding may support growth and polyp development. Small portions of appropriately sized meaty reef foods or quality coral foods may be offered periodically when the polyps display a feeding response.
Avoid overfeeding or placing excessively large pieces of food on the colony.

Important Livestock Notice
Corals are living animals, and their appearance can naturally change during shipping. The colony may arrive contracted and can require time to fully inflate after acclimation.
Coloration may appear different under white lighting, blue-spectrum reef lighting, or different camera and screen settings.
Always inspect and, when appropriate, dip and quarantine new coral before introducing it to an established display aquarium.
