So I'm not sure what's going on with my acro here. Haven't changed any routine, and dosing normal amount of kalk (no major swings or increase). It's been like this for 2 weeks now. Any help is appreciated

How is everything else in your tank doing?
Light and flow?
Anything that could be bothering it?

Evrything else is doing fine and growing. Strong random flow, redsea reefled at 80% intensity on 22k for 2 hours and 18k for 6 hours then 2 hours of 22k before ramp down. I haven't seen anything nip or poke at it.
 
Mesenterial filaments? Are you adding coral food supplements?

Happens when i feed the fish, it's off putting cause no other acros are doing it. He's also sliming during feeding
 
Try small/tiny dosing of coral specific amino acids. Check the phosphates. Perhaps the tank is nutrient deficient.

I think you're right, was dosing bw amino acid daily. Think I'll go back to it and see what happens
