This is one of my first SPS corals and I just wanted your guys expertise. I don't really notice it bleaching, but on the very very edge of the branches the tips are white. I just wanna make sure it is growing and not bleaching. I have had it for 5 weeks in the same spot. Yes I know I have some pesty aiptasia. Been slowly working on killing them.

Temp- 75.6
Ph - 8
Alk - 8.1
Mag - 1400
Cal - 400
Nit - 0
Nat - 0
Amm - 0
Phos - 0

I know some of params are low. My schedule water change is tonight.

Yes, white tips is usually an indication of new growth.

Most sps corals, both branching and plating have white (rarely some other color) as growth at the tip or along the edge.
