I have 2 Cyphastria corals in my Tank. One is encrusting and the other is Branching. They are sitting at 100 Par with the branching showing these white lines that look like cracks. I am using a AI Blade light the Parameters are all good and all other coral in tank is thriving! Any ideas what is causing the white crack lines in my branching cyphastrea? Photo below

@LordofCinder first thank you so much for taking time to help out! Also here are pics with lights of and flash it was the best I could get of both Cyphastria showing the same white lines. They look way worse with white light!
