I noticed this morning many, not all,of my z's and p's suddenly have very pale coloration. It is mostly on the skirts. They have a translucent quality to them. I haven't changed much of anything lately, other than my system has been fishless(fallow) for almost two months. I have been feeding the tank 2-3 times a week oyster feast and aquavitro fuel once every 10 days or so to keep everything happy.
I recently found that I had a pinched wire in my leds that was causing the blues to not ramp up n down properly so I have been keeping them dimmer than usual to acclimate the corals to the blues properly.
My Hawaiian PEs have slowly been losing color as well. Am I starving them of light? My SPS seem to be happy so it's hard to say. I don't have a par meter.
Params-
1.025
8.4-8.6 dKh
440-460 Ca
1450 Mg
.07-.04 po4 (over the past month)
Nitrate <.25 ppm
