ill get a phosphate test kit.. but i have chaeto right now.. and the ric at the bottom right is turning white.. to those other colors.

i mean.. the rics are those normal colors but the last one is turning white.

do a few water changes test your water again and move the coral higher so that it gets more light....

okay I'm new, but don't rics, mushrooms and zoas go through color morphs depending on light and water condition. It doesn't mean that they are not doing well right? I have a mushroom that is sometimes white and sometimes reddish/pink. I accept that to be normal for it though.

what's the highest number on the temp strips that it is going beyond. I have a strip with the last number at 86. Sounds like overheating and bleaching to me.

the last number was 84.. but now i have a digital thermometer and its reading 81.9 right now.
