So I have some minor concern. I have had this colony for about 3 weeks. I noticed 2 different spots where the flesh was exposed. One tip is brown:

And this one is more of a white tip?

Reason to be concerned??
It's in good flow and par is about 240 in this area during photo period.

Most of the colony looks great....
Nothing has changed in my water parameters :
Calcium 460
Alk 8.3
Salinity 1.0265
Nitrates 3
Phosphates.03
Mag 1350
Here is a video of flow :


Thanks In Advance
