What kind of lighting are you using? how long has this been happening? Any recent changes in tank conditions?
Pics would really help

hes using a pair of ai primes....have been using them for about a yr now.
its split shrooms before and after primes.
We did alot of changes...we switched salt from orange box reef crystals to
fritz salt. We mix our own just for the piece of mind knowing where our
water starts at. hes noticed it with since the 3rd or 4th of this month.
He also adjusted his lights to see if that was cause.
I try to get pics before lights go off...if not tonight tomorrow when lights are on.
Well just ran out to snap pics and they are off. grrr just my luck
What would just new growth look like on them> that's my guess.
I'm still new at the saltwater side and even more so troubleshooting problems
