Picked up a nice Maxima at a swap yesterday. He has been reactive to light changes and hasn’t been closed, but I came down today and saw some “white-ish” circles on some of the flesh. Is it being bleached? Have it right under an XR15 running 50% AB+ in my frag tank. I’d say around 200 PAR. Anyone know what this is?

Thar is a Crocea, not a Maxima. The markings are unique marking of this Crocea and not bleaching.
