Ultra Aussie Hot Acan Lordhowensis

Ultra Aussie Hot Acan Lordhowensis

Transform Your Tank with Australian Fire in Every Polyp

Looking for a showstopper coral that turns heads... The Ultra Aussie Hot Acan Lordhowensis is one of the most sought-after large polyp stony corals in the reef-keeping world. Sourced from Australian waters, this particular variant earns its "Hot" designation through an explosive palette of reds, oranges, and contrasting rim colors that intensify under reef lighting. Availability is limited — this is not a coral you stumble across at a chain store.

Acan lordhowensis colonies grow in a stacked, encrusting pattern, steadily expanding outward to create a bold, jewel-like display over time. Each polyp is large, fleshy, and highly expressive — they extend fully during feeding and light cycles, rewarding attentive aquarists with a dramatic visual payoff. This species is also an excellent choice for aquarists looking to add a long-lived, colony-forming LPS coral to a reef tank without demanding advanced husbandry skills.
