Hello reefers, so I just do not have luck with this plating montipora, the tissue is starting to receed in some spots. Water parameters are fine because it's growing everything else I just can't seem to get this guy to take off. I have a Red Sea reef led 90 at 100 percent and a kessil a80 at 100 percent but I wouldn't consider it high par lighting. I figured if it's growing some sps already then it would grow this. Water parameters: Alk 9 DKH, calcium 450ppm, Mag 1350ppm

Alright then, I'll try moving it down and hopefully it will recover. Thanks for the help!
 
Looking at some pictures it looked exactly like this green Australian cup coral when I got it. It says medium light/placement which it's almost dead center level in my tank right now although on the top of my rocks.
