Monti question.

Should I be braking the bottom pieces off as it grows because they get now light and turn white?

You can do that or just let it keep growing. Nice colony.

Ty! Ok didn't know if it would hurt it if I left it on there or not.

Eventually the bottom pieces will die off into white hard skeleton as the coral keeps growing above.

And one more question is it normal for it to get white spots on the top? Was all orange but started getting these last week. Only thing I changed was my salt went from instant ocean to Neo Marine slowly over 2 months.

Not normal, that can be caused by chemistry swings. Just keep things consistent for now and monitor.
