    I don't have Purple Tips - mine are
    • Regular green
    • Neon Yellow

    Mine blow up like that when a lot of nutrients are added to the tank.

    The reason I am mentioning that ...

    is because you were also asking about the browning ...
    are you using Seachem's Reef Plus?​

    If you are using that or some other amino acid type additive- cut back on that by about 50%

    It takes a good bit of a few weeks to lose the brownish coloring at the base of the fingers.

    Stingry read your last post... u sound like a pirate lol

    anyway, I have 2 frogspawns in my 55 g that is lit by 8*54 watt t5 bulbs!
    one of the frogspawns is even close up to the top. Although it has bleached considerably from when i bought it, the coral is still growing at a decent rate (about doubble in size every year).

    My point is that once initially aclimited, this coral is ok with high light

    but from your pic, I can hardly even see what your talking about....i wouldnt worry
