Montipora fading away, adjustment or nudis?

Well, I have had this monti for about 3-4 months.
It has been doing great!, great color and growth.

In the last month I have changed lighting and rearranged the rockwork, since then it has started losing its color and is fading away!

here it is:

I have not been able to notice any nudis on it..., but maybe i am just blind :-)

what do u think?
 
did you try removing it and blasting it with a turkey baster?? what color was it originally? Dont see any polyps out. not good
 
Have you checked your Salanity, Alk, CA? Those would be the first things I would check. Is it getting much flow?
 
How close is that Torch Coral that I see in the first pic to it? Could its sweeper tentacles have anything to do with it?

Also what type of lighting did you have compared to now, because my cap did that when I switched from VHO to Halide lighting.
 
My friends cap took some very serious damage from a green body, purple tip frogspawn, make sure yours is far away, as they love to kill SPS.

Nope, it is not close to ANY other corals!!!
and i switched from 250 watt mh coral vue 14Ks to the new 250 watt mh coral vue reeflux 12k

that's all
could this be nudis?
 
I have a monti cap that was doing great and growing at an incredible pace. He grew so much that i had to move him. I ended up moving it to the other side of the tank. Well he never really liked it there. I adjusted flow etc. and not the same. I ended up moving it back to the similar area he was in and now he is doing really good again.
 
Well, the monti has been moved to a place with less lighting on it...

unfortunatly..., it broke in half..., really sad about it.
