bleached. Happened to me once. But new growth went back to normal and the bleached ones actually recovered, than just melt and die.

How come the other ones arent bleaching or the colony next to it of regular utter chaos?

Utter chaos patterns can change due to spectrum/intensity, perfectly normal but I wouldn't say bleached. Heres a pic of the same colony that went from 14k directly under halides to 20k halides in the back corner of our 75 gallon. View attachment 1091759 View attachment 1091760

Does that go for most zoas as far as color change?

Utter chaos are probably the most variable, generally speaking some strains morph more than others.

Utter Chaos are prone to morph in my experience. Lots of variations when buying. They will melt before they bleach.

I've noticed that under higher PAR utter chaos will get more white. Definitely not bleaching though.
