You have slight tissue recession
Possibilities are:
Sting from nearby coral
Shading from light
Lack of feeding (mysis good)
High salinity
High phosphate (.04 - .06)

requires moderate light and water flow

Ok, going to put phosgard back in, don’t have mysis but have diy food with lots of stuff. Tried a direct feed but didn’t take it. May have use turkey baster to get some there. It’s sitting in about 150 - 175 par, can try redirecting flow.

Is this lighting good?
