Color loss in my acroporas please help

[KÜRŞAT]

Hello everyone, I am experiencing color loss in the acropora I put in my tank, what could be the reason?
The dimensions of my tank are 24''x20''x20''
Lighting 2 radion xr30 g4 pro 2nd radion added 2 days ago, both of them work in 50% sps ab+ mode,I was running it in 70% SPS AB+ mode with only one radion.

my nutrient levels; CA 415 - MG 1320 - KH 7.5 - NO3 5-10 PO3 0.05-0.1 between

newest piece is 4 months old

My tank is 2 years old, I use the tropic marine balling method and add 1 ml of elements A and K every day.
I do a 10% water change every week.

You might consider an ICP test. Usually higher PO4 can cause your issue but the range you mentioned isn’t too high.

I will do it as soon as possible

Perhaps increasing light intensity or decreasing flow will help. I don’t see bleaching, I see color shift.

That's a lot of light for a small tank why add the second light 2 days ago if everything was ok?

Turn the lights up more! Or run them longer..I can’t tell if they’re mariculture pieces or not but if they are that’s normal then.

I missed the part about the second light being added two days ago. I wouldn’t make any more changes for a couple months as it may take a little while to notice a change.

Bir ICP testi düşünebilirsiniz. Genellikle daha yüksek PO4 sorununuza neden olabilir ancak bahsettiğiniz aralık çok yüksek değildir.

Assuming that the par level might be low, I added the 2nd lighting because there is no access to the par meter where I live.

I am currently using 2 xr30 g4 pro 9 inches high in 50% SPS AB+ mode. Do you think it's good?

Should be fine.. I saw you added a second one! That’s a small tank so it’s prolly over kill! Just make sure they don’t lighten up and if they do turn them down! The g4 is a different beast than the 6 and I believe much better honestly. The 6 is trash if you ask me.

I agree, I did not use gen 6, but I used gen 5, but I did not like it, so I sold it and bought 2 g4 pro, in my opinion, it is the best lighting ecotech has ever made.

You have no par problems with a single XR30 on that size tank. I use 2 XR15s on my 36x22x22 tank and grow SPS. The 15s are weak compared to the 30.

Try the free photone app on your phone. I compared it to a par meter and it's fairly accurate for par level at the water surface.
