Hey everyone! I got this Green Slimer from WWC about two months ago. It has good polyp extension during the day but I noticed that under white lights the color seems to be fading to white in little patches. These little patches are getting bigger and bigger. I was always under the impression that this was a sign of some sort of pest nibbling on the coral tissue but I have not been able to find anything. Most other corals doing fine but for some reason, I always have issues keeping green slimers. Any ideas?

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!
