I apologize for the lack of updates. I have been having a busy summer and some problems with my acans. I have lost close to 25 pieces already. I still haven't found an apparent reason. It has been tough watching all my prized pieces die slowly... I have tried everything, coral rx, revive, hydrogen peroxide even flat worm exit to see if there was any parasitic worms. To this day I am still losing my acans very slowly. The flesh dies from the inside out. I have been reading horror stories of people losing acans left right and center and I guess I have contracted something very bad for LPS in my tank.

The good news is my I have acquired several rare zoas and they have been flourishing and my SPS are doing great, sizes have tripled for some frags and colors have been getting better. Pictures will follow soon!

Have you tried a interceptor dip? I remember reading on reef central a while back about these tiny little black bugs that would eat acans. People were quite successful dipping them in interceptor. I'll see if I can find the thread for you.

I have read about that, I don't see any black bugs on them. I am sure if I had the black bugs, the hydrogen peroxide would of killed atleast a few and I would of saw them in my white bucket. I have a few acans left, if those start to decline I will have to try interceptor as the final resort, thanks.

The first one is the pink floyd, the tips are yellow. The third to last one is wolverine. My wolverine has taking a strange shape since its growing so fast. The base is actually green. I wonder how its going to look 6 months to a year from now.
