Good morning.

Iv had an acan 5 heads on the sand sitting on a disc, my wrasse flipped it over, didnt notice for several days, obviously the acan was dead after that, however there was tiny babies on it, so i kept it. But this morning i noticed brown substance on it, im assuming its brown jelly, so i removed immediately. However im worried that it did already spread to my tank. Is that possible?

You will likely be okay. You can dose cipro if you want to be super-cautious, but there's no guarantee that it did or did not spread. I would just monitor closely and look for any signs that other coral are in distress and dip immediately if you see any others suffering from bjd. kfc dip is a favorite for bjd but I use peroxide, chemiclean, reef primer, and iodine all in a cup with the water/coral.
