Noticed on the back there was a discoloration, is it algae? The discoloration goes up under the tissue band in the back; doesn't seem to be raised... Torch is super happy and huge tissue band.

Pictures taken with lights off and flashlight. This is new, was always the same color

Thank you!

Probably just weathering in like your rocks do. All my skeletal stocks have some variation of color on them mostly an off white weathered look. If it is algae a cleaner will get to it eventually.
