I have this purple bonsai that is losing color, turning brown/pink ish. It's getting 220 par at peak. Is it too much light or not enough light? I'm thinking about moving it to help it find a better spot, but can't decide whether to move to brighter or dimmer place

I don't have experience with this coral. But 220 PAR is a pretty good number for an sps coral. I wonder if it might be something else in your tank that is the cause?

The tank is doing pretty well. The other dozens of frags are all growing. Just a couple in troubling. Thus I think it's placement reason.
