This RFA currently has white-ish skirt tentacles:

Back in early May, it had darker tentacles:

I am wondering if it is getting too much PAR. I think it is hitting near 200 at peaks on the sand bed in that spot. But, it hasn't moved, so I'm not sure if it is uncomfortable or not. I've also been battling very low nitrates and high phosphates. Oh, and fluconazole since May 24th... In fact, this is the RFA on June 30th, which still has slightly more color than currently:

Now, as I'm writing this, I'm wondering if the Flux is the cause for the change in coloration on this particular RFA. May be time for a water change and carbon. I'm at the end of treatment in any case. Thanks! Sorry for the rambling!
