Can acans outgrow their space

[Axiomix]

I picked up some acans a few weeks back, and the very next day in my tank, they'd ballooned out to almost three times their size from the store. My buddy's never seen that happen before with acans - is this normal?

They look healthy and happy, nice color on that coral.

Thanks for the reassurance. First time with an Acan, so I'm still figuring things out. I've been running my tank a bit on the "wild side" - my Zoas seem to love it, and I'm guessing that's why this little guy's looking way more vibrant now than it did in the store.

Looks like it's thriving.

It looks content.

Beautiful, that Acan looks really happy.

No such thing as too big, in my opinion. Yours seem to be thriving, great job with the care.

Thanks, all my corals are thriving - they're open wide and covered in polyps. Guess I'm doing something right, they look way better than when I picked them up from the LFS, especially compared to the ones I didn't get from a hobbyist.
