Can anyone tell me if this is the Acan sending out feeding tentacles. First Acan I’ve owned.

Does the front polyp look ok to you?

cheers

The front polyp is dying. It looks like it might’ve been a dead polyp that’s coming back. If that’s not the case it was probably bumped and receded a little bit. The rest of the colony looks great and I wouldn’t be worried. Yes, those are feeder tentacles. Give it some meat like frozen mysis!

I wouldnt count that head out just yet. I had a head that was cut in half and receding and it wound up growing back eventually.
