Alk 7.8, ca 420, mag 1350, nitrate 15, p04 basically undetectable I'm dosing p04 (neophos), 40 gallon breeder lighting 2 xr 15 gen 3 pros, one XHO actinic strip, tank is 10 months old.

So I've had this guy for 2 month, it is a green milli, it's not getting the polyp extension it used too. My acros and stylos look great with great PE but this guy just is growing slow. And with lights out the tip is just really light almost white. Been like this for 3 weeks now. The lights are out and its lamp eliminating the tank.

Thanks, it's just must be a slow grower
 
You should try taking pictures once a week and compare them all, really looks like new growth to me with that blunt tip.
 
Looks like new growth. Burnt tips usually have algae, cyano or slime on them.
