Brain help

[canadian reefer]

I have had a brain coral ( not sure what kind ) for about 4 months. at first the bottom was a Paler color and the top was bright but now the bottom is bright and the top seems to be bleaching. If anyone has advice please let me know

What is your lighting and are you feeding him?

What is your lighting and are you feeding him?

It's under a 4x54 watt t5 and don't they feed either way when I feed my fish? If not how would I feed it?

I need brain help too, but I don't have the $400/hr :( lol

How old/new are your bulbs, and how long do you run them? Are they on timers?

The first picture was when it was near the lights and I changed them to about 4 inches off the bottom for the past week. It's dies not look like its getting worse but it doesn't seem to be getting better either.. Should I place it where there is a little, like close to a rock formation on the bottom?
