Hey guys. Just wondering.. have Lobo coral.. when I was buying it at the store it was nice green-orange color.. I placed it at the bottom of my tank.. about 33-34" away from my Maxspect LEDs.. (upgraded Maxspect to Cree leds with 40 degree lenses)... Now it looks like clear coral without any colors.. pale.. U could almost see thru... is that mean it gets still to much light or what? Any help welcome.. thank You.

Everything else in my tank is doing great.

really need to see a photo, but it's not unusual for some bleaching to occur when LEDs are first used. It could also be an issue with the overall spectrum of the LEDs. When they are weighted heavily toward the blue end (which is pretty common), some shades of red, orange, and darker green can get a little washed out.
