Hey guys,
I've got a Leptoseris frag that I've had for about 6 months now. He's been growing well, but seems to be losing color, mostly on the new growth. Not bleaching per say (at least to my eye), but just not bright and solid like when I got it. My LFS had him under fairly bring light, right under and XR15 at 70%. I had him at the bottom of my tank (40B) under any XR30 at about 50% - about 125 par.
I have since moved him to an almost shaded area to see if that would improve things.

Do you think maybe it needs more light? Guessing the LFS had him under 200-300.
