Just got this coral. Woke up to it looking like this. Picture is either lights off. Is this normal behavior when lights are off?

In my experience, the slower they grow, the more vibrant the color. It is placed high up and getting 350-400 par. You can notice the new growth areas on that piece are much lighter. It just stated growing really fast so we'll see how the color holds with as it gets bigger. In my tank, I have achieved the best color on all of my pieces when:

1. alk is rock solid at 9dkh
2.p04 is very low and stays that way
3. n03 is around 7ppm and is consistent
4. I stop messing with my settings on my lights.

In my experience, yellows turn green if you have too much phosphate. Theres a sweet spot where it’s not so low that it stresses them out and it’s not too high to turn the colors
