no, i have just heard of bleeching and wasnt really sure what it looked like and my clown has been kinda anti anemones lately so i wasnt sure if maybe the clear white was a sign of underfeeding or maybe bleeching..

if your bta was red to begin with then id say its not normal. bta can sometime lose color when stressed.

I would look into kicking the lighting up a noch. It wouldn't hurt since I see that your corals do look quite beautiful in the photograph within your signature. Also spot feeding is always welcomed by corals. I feed my corals cyclopeeze with a daily spot feeding. They love it. :agree:
