Their larger polyps need a larger amount of food but little and often as always is the best course of action rather than overloading the coral.  When feeding these corals, you’ll want to spray them with a trace amount of food (brine or particulate coral feed) to initiate their feeding response by displaying their feeding tentacles. Once these are present, you can target feed a variety of LPS specialist foods such as Vitalis\/Easy Reefs LPS pellet. With regular feeding, these corals will keep their feeding tentacles out for most of the day eliminating the need to initiate feeding and increasing their overall health. Anecdotally colonies that behave in this way have the fewest health problems and are less susceptible to disease or infection. Frequent feeding also accelerates growth and recovery also providing evidence for better health.   \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cu\u003eCulturing and Spawning\u003c\/u\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003ePropogating these corals can be a relatively easy prospect as they heal well from fragging. A pair of bone cutters will do the job or a Dremmel\/wet tile saw if you fancy splashing out. Depending on your fragging experience, you may occasionally have to deal with a messy cut as it can be difficult to isolate groups of polyps.   Once the corals have been fragged, you should dip them in a disinfectant such as iodide to avoid any bacterial infections arising and can assist in healing any damaged polyps from the cutting. If you see your coral receding post frag or from infection, it can be beneficial to continue dipping for a few minutes a day.  You can take advantage of the way these corals grow by making your frags small. Polyps develop at the edge of the colony. A single polyp can quickly multiple as its surroundings are technically the edge of the colony! Making frags and sharing them amongst your fellow reefers is great for long term success rates of any coral. It’ll help in the long run of sustaining our hobby and any threat of population declines.   \u003cu\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cu\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cu\u003eLight Shock\u003c\/u\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eAcan bowerbanki prefer a lower intensity light and moderate water flow to help carry detritus away.  If you put your new Acan bowerbanki colony into to much light initially it will bleach.  It is best to put in a low light position and gradually increase the intensity over a period of weeks\/months.\u003cu\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cu\u003eFAQs\u003c\/u\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eAcan bowerbanki are particularly aggressive nocturnal predators and competitively extrude mesenterial filaments and can digest organisms within reach.
