I have had it for couple months. Seemed to be fine up until about a week ago. All other corals look ok. Thoughts?

 
looks bleached. What is the par where its at? parameters especially nitrate, phosphate, alk?

edit forgot temp....
 
It is sitting at about 150-175 PAR..

Temp = 78
Salinity = 1.025
pH = 7.9
Alkalinity (dKH) = 8.3
Calcium (Ca2) = 426
Magnesium (Mg2) =1350
Nitrate (N03) = 18.2
Phosphate (P04) = 0.20

Hmm, other than phosphate being high (which I don't think matters here), I don't think the numbers are of concern. Anything with the lighting change since then? I would consider feeding it every few days and see what happens. The polyps being extended is a sign that, other than the bleaching, the coral is probably fine.
 
Ok will try and move it a bit lower.. thanks guys! Hopefully it recovers a bit here and glad not a lost cause.
