I bought two leather coral frags from a local reefer. I’ve had them for about one month. They both get about the same light, and today I realized the base of it is turning white on the base. The other one’s growing like crazy. Is it bleaching, or if not, should I be worried?

(you can’t really tell from the picture, but the bottom third is white.)

Is the other one reaching like that? Look like it’s reaching for light. Not sure if that’s the problem, just an observation

The one I pictured does like like it’s leaning back for light, but my other one is standing straight up. They’re both at about the same level (maybe a one or two inch difference).
