Leather trouble

[Fish rookie 07]

Hey guys, hope you’re all okay, um I’m quite new to this and don’t rly have much experience so I thought I’d buy a leather to start with. I’ve had it for 6 ish months now and parts have almost turned blue which I was hoping some of you would know about as I don’t know what to do. Due to covid I can’t see my lfs so I came here...

Would appreciate opinions on what to do next as I don’t know myself!

Kinda just looks like its about to shed which is normal for leathers. Anything happen in the last week parameter wise or have new additions?

Looks like it needs more lighting, I have one that's similar to that one, but i have it high in the tank and good flow hitting it, and it does good, i would trying more it up higher a little and more in the flow

I added a hammer and have done a water change of 10% tho

Fairly poor at remembering if its torches/hammers or just torches that will do chemical warefare with leathers. Carbon can help if it is but my memory is out the window today.

Yeah I was thinking it might be that, will buff it up overtime?...
