Im happy to say recently I noticed all my corals have been growing / blooming and Ive one coral that concerns me. I have no idea of the type / name but I add a picture to share. On the lower left corner it looks like the coral is bleaching but its not turning white still has pink / purplish color to it. Can it be cause of the growth and it getting larger or can something be wrong and I need to address it. Any feed back would be great.

Thanks
Mark

Here are a few more with no blues and picture from each side. Doesn't look as bad with no blues

Overall it looks healthy. Something though, is irritating it and causing damage. This doesn't look like lighting or Alk. My guess too, if this were N and P problems you would have a more uniform distribution to the digi as well as other sps.

Are you able to get close enough to inspect for 'bugs?'
 
I'm kinda new to the digiata game, had one since just October but it is growing nicely, those tips look like some of mine do as they grow. You guys really think something is wrong, and its not just new growth from the tips? I have the tips white for a bit, then polyps start to fill in behind it as the branches grow.
 
Ah gotcha, the off color areas? Didn't really notice those before.
