Very high flow

They've grown a lot over the last 9 months in these same conditions but the last few weeks they have been pale and irritated. Params have been stable. I recently increased my violets (420nm) but all other zoas are doing great. Is this what too much PAR looks like for zoas? Have you seen something similar?

Check for pests, I have had the exact same issues with mine before. Turns out they were being bothered by asterinas and spaghetti worms.
