bingo... you got the same thing going on that I do. My acros are fine. My monti is not doing so good though. I have on frag from my original mother colony. The colony was around 2ft, but 18". Very nice coral, 3 different monti that grew together. It did great in my tank for the longest time when I got the frag back, but it turned pink and started fading out on me. Now I noticed my digi doing the same thing.... this sucks

Are you moving or touching them?

I am dosing amino and iodine. No potassium. Then the usual 3 as well.
I try not to touch them, but I have a wrasse that likes to knock things over from time to time. But they have not really been touched in 2 weeks. The original one that faded out didn't move in months when it faded.

Reef "Hobbyist"...right!?
My personal experience....
I had a red cap that turned pink on me when I had a low fishload and fed sparingly.
I have seen a lot of improvement with multiple feedings a day and a heavier fish load. I also began using a better skimmer to go along with the heavier nutrient import.

I feed once or twice a week. For fish I have a neon wrasse, a 6line wrasse, a pygmy angel, a yellow tail damsel, and may or may not have a little goby still in there. They all pick at the rocks all day long, and look fairly fat, so I don't really feed all that often. However, I have not ran my skimmer since xmas, and noticed a bright and rich color enhancement with several of my acros... its my monticaps, and my digi that look bad
