Coral dying? How do I save this?

[taki123]

Hi guys,

I bought this coral not sure what it’s called but it seems to be losing its green and purple colour?
Added a photo also of how it looked when I bought it.



Anyone know what it’s called and where is best to place it? Currently I have it in a low flow and high light area

My readings as of yesterday night;
Phosphate = 0.1ppm
Nitrates = 0.2ppm
Alk = 7.9dKh
Calcium = 450ppm
Mag = 1370ppm
Ph = 8.1

My lighting schedule:

Welcome! How old is your tank?

I have had the tank for around 6 months. But I bought it as a complete set up that was run by someone for 2 years. So I carried the same water and everything over to set up at mine

Large colonies are very particular. Even with the same set up, large changes can turn them. Usually at that size they are set in their ways

Do you know which coral it is? Is it a stylophora?

Typically, you want low flow and low light. High light, low flow will cause bleaching.

I’ve moved it into a low light low Flow area. But I’m not sure what coral it is? Maybe it wants high flow high light?

if i'm reading your light schedule correct, 50% whites is alot to me. I would knock that down

What level should I knock it down to?
