LPS in trouble, help please?

they are fast and mean.i have seen lfs label and selling them as reefsafe poor customer if he gets any open brains they are gone and he probably wont ctach on till to late.the ignorance at most lfs but a blackcloud over this hobby.they should all have computers at the shop so they can look uo info b4 they buy
 
Oh, I got mine from a fellow reefer, who only had it with sps and softies. And its still in my sump, I'm giving it away but making sure everywhere I post it I have BIG warnings about its lps eating tendencies.

Anyhow, I promised pics, here's a few. I have to move one of my favia's into more shade, its starting to bleach, otherwise this is how it looks atm. But I rearrange too often.

And yes, I literally just picked up the camera and took pics. I know, next time clean the algae off the glass >.< 50 hour weeks makes some things slack. Like reaching in the tank with my razor blade. I have things hiding behind the rocks that you can't see (like my baseball sized rock of war coral) and things are a bit more spaced out than it looks (the goni is about 2 inches from the favia, and 1 inch from the trumpets, the trumpets need to find a new spot...)
 
I like the columns!

From the 1st fts pic, it looks like your lighting is blasting the bottom of the tank.
Some lps like full light, some need shade, and everything in between.
Things that are more reddish colors(compared to greenish) seem to come from deeper water and consequently like less light.

Im not saying that IS your problem, but could be something to consider.
All my red/orange lps are under ledges and/or in shaded areas.
 
That's my white being waaay off. I didn't adjust the camera correctly. Although I should move the prism favias out of the middle of the sand bed.
