I got this Dragon Soul Favia (right?) and I've had it for a while. It started in my 40 gallon before moving into 170. I'm noticing these brown spots; I don't recall seeing them before. Any idea what's happening here? It's not happy?

 
It looks a bit drawn in and unhappy. I would remove the algae off the edges and test your parameters. It could also just not like the high flow/light. If the parameters are good try moving it to an area with less flow and light and see if it perks up after a few days.
 
I am in the middle of a Dino outbreak. I'm constantly blowing it off corals. But I don't think that's Dinos on it, it's blowing off. It may be hair algae? I'll try cleaning it off and moving it.
