Hey all,

Over the past two weeks or so, my little Acanth hasn't been opening of a night or extending during the day...
It's just staying the same size...

I can say that pH and kH are at 8.0 and 9 respectively. I will test the other parameters when I get home tonight, but every other coral is fine?!

Any ideas why this little guy is upset?

Some corals go through periods of not opening. If the light is correct for them, they're getting most of what they need that way. after I feed mine it can be 2-3 days before they open up with their tentacles extended.

It looks ok to me?

Thanks @ReeferRob

It's opened up now! It was a bit angry I think a crab (now removed) was annoying it!
