Cali Tort losing color out.

[Zbass]

I have a Cali tort frag that was thriving with great polyp extension with a par about 230 to 240. I got stronger lights and it increased to about 300 par. I’ve been watching it for a couple weeks and the polyp extension is very Minimal and it’s starting to brown out and lose color. So I decided move it back down to about 240 par to see if it perks back up. This is the only Acro that’s doing this. everyone else is thriving. Does this sound like a par issue?

Pics?
I think I'm having the same issue. It looked better but I'm thinking my nutrients are elevated now after a rough summer/fall last year. I'm working on it but it takes time.

Mine is the colony on the left, excuse the terrible picture. It gets closer to 400 par.

Cali tort doesn't require much light for color. What are nutrient levels, what type of lights, schedule, ect.
