    Hey,

    My happy people eater palys have started losing color and turning white around the edges..almost clear. I just got my new leds and was wondering if the led's are turned up to high? Or should I turn them up more. Very new to Led's here so the best help anyone could give me is if too much light makes palys or zoas do this or too little light.

    Thanks

    They could be too bright and bleaching your corals try backing them up further off the tank if you can and see if it helps

    Agree; too much light, too fast. You're bleaching them.
