Is this normal for a monti cap

[David cornelius]

I have had this monti cap for 2 months now, all the params are good & stable. Is this coloration normal for a monti cap? Or could this be some type of pest or bleaching spots?

Do you test Potassium? I've seen that in my tank when potassium is low.

Do not test potassium, I test cal, alk, mg

Interesting i would have thought a color morph but at closer look it doesn’t look right

Almost looks like bacterial. Are you dosing any carbon?

Yes, just dipped in coral rx just a few days ago as well

Could be just irritated from the dip.

I was asking if your dosing Carbon, vinegar, vodka.....etc.

Salinity in check?
Nutrient (NO3/PO4) levels okay?

Salinity is at 1.025
Phosphate has fluctuated some due to heavy feedings of penepets to my coral but I am running gfo and phosphates are currently sitting at .14
Nitrate is at 25
