Folk: one of my acans is sulking in my tank over the past two days. It has always been a happy guy. I did some aquascaping this weekend but all other corals are back happy (as seen in pic) but this guy alone is still shrunk. What should I do?
Water params
Alkalinity: 10
Calcium: 470
Magnesium: 1380
Nitrate: between 5 and 10 ppm (has always been like this) and I don't use rodi water and keep doing 10 gallon water changes every week.
Ph:8.2
Temp:78
Tank is a 30 gallon nano with a 15 gallon sump

Params looks ok. My acans do this on occasion (I feel like monthly) they'll be sad like for a couple of days and then back to normal again. I find that to be especially true anytime I have moved them!

Thanks. This is good to know. Never happened over the 4 months I have kept him. I will give it few more days.
 
I have two acans that do this too, they would just deflate for a couple days then back to puffiness.
