i cant remember for the life of me what he is but I think he is bleaching out but why?
My light ( a Zetlight 6500) sits about 12 inches below the light and it's only running less than 50% so I can't figure out why?

Definitely seems like there is some tissue recession. The tend to like lower light and low flow so try to put it in a place where it gets that. You can also try spot feeding it as well. Best of luck!
 
Thanks Kschhweer I put him further down This has just happened in the last week or so. I just checked on him and his orange and yellows are peeking out. So will keep him down there. How about trumpets will they do better further below as well?
 
Thanks I have had them on the side of the tank on the wall 3/4 up in a frag holder they didnt do well now they're about 12 in down from light (everything is 12 in down. They seem to be doing better there. I have crappy rock Iold dead birdsnest type coral with braches all over so its hard to put anything on them but trying
Thanks
