Hey guys my BTA is normally super happy but I have noticed on lights out the tips almost look burnt ?

Anything to be worried about ?
When I first got this guy he was so bleeched he was white.
This is a recent development

Purple tips like that are common for BTAs and are nothing to worry about. It looks good!
 
Sorry I mean more with the lights out there is what I can describe as frost bite appearance around the bouble part
Also normal, although less common. Here's one I had that had it real bad under intense lights.

I recently raised the output of my lights, by 5% for the last two weeks I wonder if this is what caused it
