I've had this piece for around 5 months and it has undergone a very interesting color shift. I have it sitting around 450 PAR. I'm not entirely sure what triggered the shift, but it could have been from NO3 staying undetectable (I dose Ammonium bicarbonate to aid with that, but for a while, I wasn't dosing enough). Then there were whitebugs that I recently just finished a 3 week interceptor treatment. This one was one of the only pieces that faded out over the past few months but has started coloring back up.
First pic is now, 2nd pic was from back in March. Both photos taken under blues with orange filter, no editing.
It's growing pretty well but something definitely caused a paling/color shift.

I know what lineage/pseudoname it has but kudos to anyone that can figure it out.
