My large montipora is turning white and I don’t understand why. My parameters are on point and my others are fine.

Yes, and I’m not sure what it is. I’m thinking of cutting it before it continues to grow more.
 
Agree with the above statement.
Almost looks like blue photosynthetic sponge in the picture. Or something else, like rot I would careful remove all of it to hopefully prevent it from spreading further.

A white light image of the stuff that you remove, or a magnified image from a scope may help with the identification of the object?
