Thanks! Yeah the left one is doing well. The right acan has been thru a lot of rough times back when I was a reef noob (see a lot of the empty sockets where polyps used to be) but its doing better so hoping it can recover. The issue im running into now, believe it or not, has nothing to do with water chemistry -- there is a pistol shrimp under the rock too, and since this piece of rock has a few holes facing up (between the two acans) , the shrimp would shoot out sand from these holes as water push more sand back into the hole from the "main entrance" on the bottom.. So every once a while I get these "sand geysers" that cover up the right acan and tick it off.

Tried that, the pistol moves them away at night lol. I think he likes crawling out of those holes at night...I need to putty seal them at some point.
