In the last day or two I noticed my Acan looking bad. Yesterday it was all shivering up. Today it looks like only 1/3 to be that way. Anybody have this, and any thoughts on what to do? It’s taken under different lighting! Thanks

What are your parameters? Any change to flow or light recently? How often do you feed them and what do you feed?

All water is ok. Other corals are doing very good. Been in tank over 1 year. Position was changed about 6 months ago. Feed directly about every 1-2 weeks, with Coral Frenzy these are photos from last year.

Sometimes mine do this as well and then after a day or two it’ll puff itself back up to normal. Do you have any other acans in the tank that look ok? Mine are all together so if they all look bad then I get concerned. If it’s only one and the others look fine I let it ride out.

Looks like it’s getting back to normal. My candy cane gets that way on 2 polyp on left side occasionally.
Thanks for the info,
