I have 7 zoas in my tank. They're all doing perfectly fine, aside from these Halle Berry Zoas. I realize that this pic isn't amazing, but can anybody provide some insight as to what may be causing the issue? Params: 77 degrees. Salinity: 1.026. Ammonia: 0. Nitrate: 7-8. Phosphate: 0.23. Alkalinity: 9.63. pH: 8.1. The phosphates have been creeping up a little and I just started a little GFO in the media reactor, but I've had tanks with Phosphates way higher and zoas seemed to flourish in "dirtier" water. Thanks in advance for any assistance.

I would try a different location and see if that helps
 
How does everything else look in your tank?
 
My water parameters are similar to yours and my Halle’s are growing like crazy. My recommendation would be to play around with light and flow. They seem relatively unbothered by hair algae and I have them sitting in the middle level of my tank.

I have an AI Blade Coral Grow light and moderate flow from two power heads.
