Good morning.

Iv had an acan 5 heads on the sand sitting on a disc, my wrasse flipped it over, didnt notice for several days, obviously the acan was dead after that, however there was tiny babies on it, so i kept it. But this morning i noticed brown substance on it, im assuming its brown jelly, so i removed immediately. However im worried that it did already spread to my tank. Is that possible?
 
Do you have pictures?
I have a video showing it to my friend but it does show the brown at the end

You will likely be okay. You can dose cipro if you want to be super-cautious, but there's no guarantee that it did or did not spread. I would just monitor closely and look for any signs that other coral are in distress and dip immediately if you see any others suffering from bjd. kfc dip is a favorite for bjd but I use peroxide, chemiclean, reef primer, and iodine all in a cup with the water/coral.
