Just looking for some verification on if my monti is bleaching or not as this is my first SPS coral, so there's no first hand experience. I got a large chunk of red monti cap two weeks ago. It spent a week near the sand bed to get acclimated to lighting and then I moved it into what was supposed to be it's permanent location. The move raised the piece about 7 inches in the inches in the tank. It has been find looking until this morning after being in place for about a week.
The back half that is clearly more red is what it usually looks like and the lighter color is new.
