Hi all!
Any ideas why my Acan is loosing color? It's on the same spot since I got it. My water parameters is very stable. I'm using my radion light only 35% (in 4 weeks acclimation start in 10% - this is week 3). Any ideas?? Something that I'm missing to check? Tks peps.

Your lighting. I could never keep acans under radions when I had them. The acans would always color morph on me. That's probably your situation as well.
 
My acans lost a lot of color...I believe from lack of nutrients. I took gfo offline and every coral in my tank responded positively.
Dropped alk from around 10-11 range to 7.5-8.5 range. That seemed to really help with my colors
