Zoa colour intensity fading

[serbusfish]

I was wondering what might have caused my Zoa to lose colour intensity, do they need to be higher up in the tank with more intense light? Mine is currently on the sand bed, and im running Maxspect Razor LED's. Also, it has an orange centre and green edges. Both colours where very bright when I got it, but now while the colour is still the same they arent as bright as they were.

What do you run the light intensity at?

Test your nitrates. If they are low or nonexistent, then you might want to raise that

Currently they are running at 50% whites and 80% blues.

Actually my nitrates are too high at the moment, they are at 25.

Not enough light, they typically brown. Too much light and they typically fade.
