Whats going on with my clam?

Alright I have jumped lighting so it ramps up to 100 percent blue and 40 percent white I dont wanna torch corals just jumping to 100 percent for both
 
You want to slowly raise LEDs up or you are going to stress your corals. 40% is a big jump. 5-10% a week is what I always went by. You need a much longer peak not just the higher peak intensity. My NanoBox retro peaks for 5 hours a day at 65% blues and 25% whites, but that's on a 15g.
 
Thanks ill step it up 5 percent a week as to not burn my corals
 
The white will peak at 20 percent for 4 hrs and blues peak for 50 percent for 5 hrs
 
Give your coral sometime to adjust before step you led up.
