acans vs micromussa

There are a lot of similarities but Micro polyps are smaller than Acan polyps. They are both hardy corals but some people have more difficulty keeping micro. Although both color well under lower lighting, micro seems to keep better color under more intense lighting.
 
They are also differentiated by being two different species. If I had the Veron Corals of the World books I could give you the taxonomic differential, but it is most certainly something that can only really be done at a skeleton level.
