I've had this for about 4 months now and it has shown decent growth, more than I would have expected after only being in the tank for 4 months.

I'm pretty sure it's a stag but not sure. Are these tips burning? It doesn't seem to be making its way down the branches but it is appearing on more branches as the days go on.

Calcium: 460
Alk: 9.5-10dKH
Magnesium: 1380-1400
Phosphates: 0.06-0.1
Nitrate: 5-10

It's directly under and slightly to the right of an A360 about midway up the tank. Photo period is a out 10 hours with intensity peaking from 1pm-6pm. There is plenty of polyp extension, even on the white tips

Should I move it? It's barely encrusted onto rock so it won't be an issue. I could reduce the alk over the course of a couple weeks. Everything else in the tank is fine, including other acros

I appreciate the responses!! I was just alarmed because it seemed to happen over the course of about two weeks. Thank you for the peace of mind!!
