help!
ok so i have had my green glove polyps in my tank for about a month now and all of a sudden within the last few days they started looking like thisphoto 1.jpgphoto 2.jpgphoto 3.jpgphoto 4.jpg
are they being bleached? if so the only thing different to the lighting is i took the leds off the glass and hung them 4 inches above the tank.
parameters are all within normal, ph-8.2, ammonia 0-0.25ish, nitrite 0 and nitrate like 5-10. please help if you can these guys are my favorite and dont wanna lose them. thanks
Brandon.

If all your perimeters are the same and haven't changed much, it maybe that because you moved your lights and with their new location, the polyps need a little time to get used to it.

Like with all things, it takes time.. a change is a change and it may take some getting used to. How do they look today?

It actually would be giving them stronger light if you lowered the fixture down closer to the water.....
Try moving the coral to the sand bed, that will help if the light is the cause...
