I received a acan 2 weeks ago that was bleached out pretty bad he was from a tank of coral eating fish, I put him in my display and he has been feeding well and opens up fine however his color looks bleaches and swollen. Any ideas?

What is your magnesium level? They like higher mag levels. I am hoping you mean phosphate (PO4) by "pH", right? As long as it is feeding, that's a good sign. I'd put it in a fairly shaded area until it starts to color up quite a bit more.

I dose fuval sea ion which has cal, mag, str, and I have no issues with any other corals (sps, LPs, soft)
