Space invader pectinia dying!

[Marc2952]

So theres this space invader pectinia that i got from legendary corals the 29th of january, it seems to be bleaching alot and idk why. The placement that i have it on is at 160 PAR which i thought was fine since im acclimating it even lower at 25% on the kessils , i did go through a dino problem when i had it acclimating it and had to do a 3 day blackout maybe thats the cause? I use kessil a360x just like the guys at legendary corals and my parameters seem fine
ALK 8.6
CAL: 480
MAG: 1400
Nitrate: 10
Phosphate: 0.10 ( had to increase due to dinos, was hitting 0 too much so far dinos havent come back)
I also did lose 2 acans and a pocillipora aswell. I really like this coral and would be a bummer to lose it.

The light is about 20 inches from the kessils

yeah hope you get more opinions i think higher flow less light

Agree with less light and more flow.

Battling dinos can be tough on livestock. I've had a rough go against dinos myself. Odd thing is, it's only in one of my 3 setups. Going to take that one down this weekend as I really dont need it anymore.

Indeed was battling with it for a month and loss a couple of corals which is annoying.
