Bonsai growth and color change

[fishfanatic06]

This is growth and color change of my purple bonsai in the last 2 and a half months. I started the "Iwan method" 2 months ago.
Don't mind the hair algae. It actually has declined considerably since starting prodibio. This is one of the few spots that still has some.


2 and a half months ago

Now

The thing in the back of pic #2 is my sea hare. To eat my hair algae.

Is it supposed to get more pale? Looks happy either way.

Lightening of corals with prodibio is all part of the whole thing. Colors are suppose to become more pastel. Personally I like it better. The picture does not do its justice.

How high do you have it in your tank? I have mine pretty high, but it is slowly losing tissue in the back of it! I hate this, it is one of my coolest corals!!

I keep mine 6 inches from the bottom of the tank. The tank is 18 inches tall. I use to have it at the top and I did not like the color a whole lot. Ever since moving it down its color has become insanely better.
