Hi all, looking for input. I have a Montipora that has started going from green to tan. It seemed happy for over 6 months and all of a sudden it has started turning. Nothing has changed as far as light. Flow is a bit different since I lost 1 powerhead. It was without it for several weeks...

It looks like a tiny spider and was crawling on one of my newly acquired monitpora frags. There seems to be no harm done to the monti...no spots, recession, lack of polyp extension, etc. It is about 2-3 mm in diameter.
