Appears to be very bleached which would point to insufficient lighting. Telling us which lights you have and current alk, nitrate and phosphate will narrow the problem down.

What settings are you keeping it on? I have kessil 360s and nems. I have mine turned up to 95% intensity and my nems sit as close as they can get.

Here you can see how close mine are, the light is directly above them. I'm guessing they're between 250 and 350 par. The A80 I don't think is capable of those numbers. Could be parameter or environmental issues, but I still lean toward lighting.
