What could be the issue with acro?

I’ll get on that and cover my grounds :) could possibly be the opposite too, burning the acro with high par…

How long have you had this piece?

I’ve got one like this. It ain’t dead though. I would concentrate on keeping everything else happy.

over time it started this, i did lose two acro's to a ph spike before but everything else was fine

I put the frag lower and surprisingly its looking much better, polyps are extended more, aswell the skin doesnt appear powdery from what i can see... will inspect after lights out tonight and report back. Gonna keep it stable since all other corals are happy and growing well

off topic question!

@Charlies Frags will this be fine as a makeshift sump? https://www.princessauto.com/en/40-gal-black-oval-poly-stock-tank/product/PA0008972770​

I have one in my basement. Works great! Fits all my gear, rock and lots of room for gas exchange.

Update: The frag is recovering nicely and its polyps are as shaggy as ever! Keeping things stable and other corals are happy too. Will continue to update if anything happens good or bad

Update: mini colony is deepening in colour(still light) but it is happy as can be and the problem spot actually sprouted a corallite. As well, the other problem spot in the middle is coming back with zooxanthellae. I chalk this whole thing down to getting too much light. Hope this helps another reefer :)
