some of my acan will randomly close up once in a while but open back up soon after. This happens randomly.

This this shriveling up occur randomly or do you notice a pattern during certain instances it occurs

Also, acan like meatier food so I would definitely start to feed it some mysis or similar things.

my acans usually always shrivel up at night and sometimes randomly throughout the day. I would say it's pretty normal
