This *could* be a sign of parasites, specifically AEFW, as they seem to be more concentrated in the nooks between branches, and on the underside. Hard to tell but it also kind of looks like it might be exposed skeleton rather than bleached tissue, meaning there might have been some degree of RTN.

There is still pe on the bleached part. I have checked and couldn't see any bite marks
 
Is there anybody that can help me?

Just now following up, sorry.

A more defined close up picture (macro shot possibly?) would help out a lot. By the original picture posted it appears that some of the "bleached" portion appears to actually be getting a decent degree of light, otherwise it looks like a healthy colony. I have a SSC colony with MUCH tighter branching, probably due to very very high flow, that has little to no coloration on lower and side portions that receive very little light exposure. What you are experiencing might be completely normal, but it's very hard to tell without a more detailed picture.

i don't have a micro lens. I'm not sure how to make a closer pic.
