Not sure what this coral is. I got it as a freebie. It has been growing really well but has recently been losing the red color. Looking for any advice.

Thanks, i dose neo nitro almost daily if i don't forget but it's been a struggle to keep up at acceptable levels. Not a lot of algae in the tank imo but something must be consuming nitrates. I do have a little bit of hair algae on the rock and back glass. I have also been feeding red sea a+b and reef roids occasionally. I'll try bumping this up.

I would up the red sea reef energy but not the reef roids.
