coral bleaching?

[behaguef]

I have noticed come of my SPS colors are fading. Is this consider bleaching? my water parameters are ok. Any thoughts?

What kind of lighting do you have? Are those up to date readings in your sig?

 

[behaguef]

yes they are the most up to date... I am using Aquamedic 150W MH 20K... My orange Monti Cap never got dark orange..

although yesterday my ph was on the low side...

When you say fading, do you mean the colors are getting dull or are they turning white?
White is bleaching.
Fading could be excessive nutrients.

they are actully getting dull.. although one of my deep water SPS frag on my rack bleached in one night! never seen that before... I have the Chemipure Elite in my filter as well...
