Acros changing color

DONT CHANGE YOUR TANKS CHEMISTRY TO FIT THE NEEDS OF ONE CORAL.

Preach!

I bet a lot of people dig their holes deeper because of this problem. Especially in mixed reef tanks where the animal's needs can vary so much from it's neighbours.

Looks like the color it should have, have seen tenuis with that coloration before, I don't know if below is bleaching, hard to see with only blues.

wow

It sounds acceptable but on the very low range of par for acropora

wow

Wut

I said acceptable but on the very low range

This Is How Much PAR for Acropora Is Necessary

Every reefer wants their acropora to thrive in their tanks, and making sure your corals get proper lighting plays a big part in their health and happiness! Most acropora will do just fine with 200 to 300 PAR, but with a few specific types of acropora, they can take up to 750 PAR. Just remember...

To me, the purple looks like the bleached part and the green looks healthy. It is possible the coral is recovering / destressing and was green originally
