I got this as a 3/4 sized frag grew for one year to 2 1/2 inches. All of a sudden it started bleaching all other corals are doing great. And I never moved it since day one in the tank until it started to bleach so I moved it to my 72 gal. Some eyes are still green but 85% bleached. Levels of ammonia nitrite and nitrate are zero and calc at 400, phosphates are good as well

Nitrates at zero can be an issue. That should really be an issue for most corals though.

My Hollywood stunner started out around half inch and it’s been almost a year and its about 5” around now and growing up like a cup. I do feed it coral frenzy ever now and then.

It’s actually a pretty picky coral from what I have seen. I’ve tried 3 good chunks I broke off mine in a friends tank and every time it dies. First it bleaches a little and then looses all tissue. Only issue in that tank is high nitrates.

I agree with @John3 chalices like dirty water.

It’s just really weird how it’s the only one bleaching I feed it chunks of mysis and reef chilly/reef roids. It always extended its tentacles and was great. I think it started once I added aqua forest coral v and af build. That’s when I noticed it bleaching.
