Iodine dip for Aussie Acans not opening

[jamirlima]

I got some aussie acans 3 weeks ago and they are in the bottom of my tank with T5 lights. One of them started showing signs of not opening up completely like it used to from day 1. I am concerned what is going on? Does he need more lights? or target feed them? he is not opening up like he used to for the last 3 weeks. All the other acans seem like they are ok.

Can I do iodine dip? For how long? Would Kent Marine Iodine be ok and how much to use?

Any suggestions? Thanks

I wouldn't do anything. Acans do this from time to time. If it stays deflated for more than a week, then start worrying...JMO

If it stays sucked in then interceptor it!!

Is interceptor not a dog medication? Can I get that from petsmart? What kind of dose to use?

How about REVIVE? I did iodine dip but they are still staying sucked in.....?

I see a hermit crab behind it... maybe it's been irritating it

Yes i have hermit crabs but they are not around this acan all the time. The other acans are all open and healthy
