    One of the torch coral heads has turned a neon green color, its been about a week. It still opens and looks alright its just a totally different color. What do you guys think? How should I get the color back? Thanks

    Tank params, and lighting? It may be too high up in a high lighting tank.

    They are T5's He has been there over two months and the color change just happened last week. If it was a lighting issue would it have taken so long?
