    My acans seem to be dying. I don't know why, my parameters are spot on. They've been like this all week. Maybe too much light? Anyone ever seen this with their acans? Any ideas on what I can do?

    Its either too much current and/or light, or they are starving.

    Have they been taking meaty offerings?

    That or something is picking on them. Do you have a dwarf angel? Sometimes tangs will pick on them, too. Acans are tasty.

    What kind of lights are you running? Any recent changes in the tank?
