    My stylophora is placed about 10 inches under the 150 watt MH bulb and the tips of it have bleached out. He is also under the center brace of the 46 gallon bow and it seems like the part under the brace is not bleached out like the rest. I took the pic at night on Macro mode. Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Adam

    The problem is I can t move him down. I have no where else to place him. Do they no like that much light? Even if I moved him would his color look better. I have not seen any growth from him. His polyps are out though.

    From what I understood with my Acro, the white tips mean the coral is growing. Don't know if that applies to this though.
