Feeding Acans But Getting More Hungry!

[admiralmcstabby]

First, I apologize for the not-so-clear photos, still learning how to use the a6000!

I picked up these Acan corals a little over a month ago and their feeder tentacles weren't very extended. However, after feeding them regularly for a few weeks as you can see those bad boys are VERY extended.

Just curious if this is common or not. Otherwise they seem very healthy. Very fleshy polyps, responsive, good color and I'm pretty sure there's little Acans in my near future (bubbly tissue where the polyps attach to skeleton).

Any thoughts?

I feed mine 3 times a week meaty LRS reef frenzy nano. They grow great. I think what ever your doing keep it up as your's look fine.

Thanks! Obviously I know you technically don't need to feed most corals and my lighting is definitely adequate, but I love feeding my corals....I feed most of them daily or every other day lol (the ones that take to meaty foods...filter feeding corals I feed less). I take great care into target feeding and usually suction out any extra and my parameters have been fine so...why not!
