I have a lobo colony that has been thriving for months now. but over the last few days I have noticed that the top edges of the lobos are getting white. is this a sign of too much light? or a chemical imbalance? also I have a Mycedium that i have had for 4 months now and has been doing great but over the last few weeks has been turning brown. like solid brown. is this a sign of not enough light? Both are in a similar location in the tank
Couple of coloration questions

colors and textures
In general terms, yes, top of lobo getting white could be too much light, and Mycedium turning all brown could be too little light. Without pics or water chemistry information, it's difficult to be more specific.
Is the top of the lobo still flesh covered? Or is the white because white skeleton is poking through? That would be recession, which is more serious than bleaching.

sorry. here are the pics of the lobos. I moved the mysedium to the other tank. but they were literally sitting next to each other. They are still flesh colored, very full and fluffy no skeleton poking through
