Well a snail or conch must have pushed my Acans next to my Duncan and it looks like the acan puked on the duncan.

Yep, those are mesenterial filaments. A part of a corals digestive system that they can use to kill neighboring corals

I have since moved them far away and I think both corals will be fine, but it would have been interesting to get that process on video.

Though as a fair warning, the duncan may not, as the sting on the filaments are very strong

Thankfully the duncan was a cheap $10 frag and easily replaceable.. It happened 2 days ago and here is a pic of the duncan today.

Well then you might be right. Though surprising as mesenterial filaments are meant to kill. Your duncan is lucky
