Ok, my 2 cents.
I've tried Acan Plus when I heard about some great things happening to others' acans/ LPS. As my tiny frags were not doing much but barely existing, I thought that I had nothing to lose. I bought and tried the stuff.
And all I can say is that, I have tried Reef Chili, but when I fed my acans, blastomussas, a tiny 3/4" frag of plate coral, and my other LPSs with Acan Plus, they all responded like nothing that I have seen before.
All my frags of barely living acans are now showing lots of fleshy polyps, my plate has grown to 1-1/2" and others are showing great colors and feeding responses, no matter what time of the day I fed them. And this is since after Christmas.
I didn't feed as often as Patrick did, either, just whenever I had the time and remembered to.
I don't really know what's in the bottle, just that it worked well for me. I have used lots of stuff in this hobby that I have had no idea what's in the bottle. Maybe that's wrong, but I think that everyone should have their own opinion as to how they'd like to manage their hobby.
And I also think that if everyone were to really read through what they have written down before they post for the world to see, we all could be saved from bad spelling and harsh-sounding comments.:sad:
It is my own decision to try something new, and this time, especially, I am very pleasantly surprised by the results. Great product, James. I will definitely continue to buy and use it.

Acan Plus is well priced at $20. And I have not seen FM priced lower on any coral food locally. So if cost is the factor, then most people would choose AP.

Sry when I was in jl aquatics the other day I thought I saw the bottle of FM for under 20 but I coulda been looking at the wrong tag I apologize

Don't be sorry. I am in Edmonton. Prices could be different where you are.

Because I see so many people saying good things about Acan + (ingredient list notwithstanding) I would try this product to make up my own mind. If the corals do better, like everyone says, I would buy it again because then I could say the product works in my tank
I don't see what all the hullabaloo is about. Acan + either works or it doesn't. If it doesn't, then nobody would buy it. If it works because it had magic in it, I would still buy it because it "works"
Just my 2cts

after some digging around and phone calls I have found out an indgredient list must be listed on all pet foods.

So Acan Plus and Zeovit is actually not properly labeled and cannot legally be sold in Canada.

Refer to section 3.2 a)

Last time I looked I don't think Acan Plus was fish food. Just my two cents.

No saying you are wrong Ryan but do coral's fall under the category of being a pet? I would think that a pet would have to be a member of an animal species.

Just a question?

even then not all ingredients are listed there is lots of crap in most dog/cat foods that are not listed in the ingredients unless you dig deep on the internet.
yummy things.. like preservatives that actually cause problems in your pets long term.

Exactly, it took my wife 3 months and many phone call to some of the big name dog food brands to find a food that lists ALL there ingredients and have zero filler for our Huskies.
