It looks like my Aussie acan is dieing and I was wondering what is going on. It is currently on the bottom of my 24g aquapod. Is it not getting enough water movement? My parameters are good. The only thing that I can think of is my dwarf angle is picking on it but I have not seen it go near any of my corals. It is no where near anything else. I also have green mushrooms, zoas, and a brain in the tank but they all seem to be doing fine. Very confused.
 
I think you are on the right track in thinking all of your suspitions, I would keep a closer eye on the Angel, kick up the flow and move him higher up into the top of the tank. Hows your Magneesium?

I found the dwarf angle attacking the acan. It has since been removed from the tank and back at the fish store. Hopefully, with some luck the acan will recover. I don't test for magnesium but it does get in the tank from the salt I use and I do water changes once a week. I also added stuff with amino acids to help with coral growth or so it claims. I'm assuming that there is nothing more that I can do other than wait and see but if there is anything else I can do to increase the survival of the acan please post them. I'm afraid to move the acan higher in the tank but will do it if it will help. Thanks for the help.
