Open brain question

I have had my open brain for 4 months or so and its losing some of its red coloring. It is red and green the red is turning like a dark purple. Is there reason for this? All water param are good my calcium was a bit low but Im slowly bringing it up, nitrates are 10 ppm.

May want to reduce Nitrates but this is normal for coral including LPS. I've had similar situations happen with Lobos.
