Blue/Purple-rimmed Acan

Representative Acan coralphoto — a dedicated image of this exact morph isn't available yet.

Acans displaying rare blue or purple fluorescent rim pigments around the polyp edges, a much less common pigment than red/green. Prized as collector pieces.

Keeper tips for this variant

Add a touch more actinic/blue spectrum to pop the rim fluorescence, but keep overall intensity moderate — the blue pigment is delicate and bleaches before the reds do.
