Hey there guys and gals I have some polyps that are growing and multiplying but losing color any advice

8.5 Alk 1440 mag 400 cal I add strontium and idodine respectively
 
Are you measuring your iodine and strontium levels so you know if you're overdosing? Iodine is very easy to overdose from what I've read. Not sure if that'd be a cause for color loss. Could try moving the polyps into more/less light, feeding them, flow, etc. Before and after pictures? Browning out or bleaching?
 
If anything I under does I have a 120g and only add a few drops after a water change I have moved them from Bottom to mid wAy up after the colors started to lose color and have been there for bout a month and still nothing but popped another head lol
 
Need to see the picture or zoa's name. Some of them are not hight light zoa. Moving up could losing of it color but color will come back when it use to new light condition.
 
it lost its color at the bottom of the tank thats why i moved up its what i think is the Real Deal RDPE
