So can holy grail micro be near regular acans ?
I also need to know this as well lol
Yes they can! The regular big polyp acans are classified as micromussa lordhowensis (formerly acanthastrea lordhowensis) and the smaller polyp acans are micromussa amakusensis. they can touch with no issues but the amakusensis is a smaller polyp

Good cause I want to put the holy grail right in the middle
Yep, as long as they're all Lordhowensis. Micromussa (Micro) is the newish classification for Acan Lordhowensis. Some still use the Acan prefix while others use the Micro prefix.

Not from this sale, but Ann @Living Reef Orlando the RFA and Micro decided they want to be buddies... Also, check out the Baby Micro! She's about 2 weeks old.
