Default Re: Purple Rim Monti Needs Help!

By browning out, do you mean that the purple rim is disappearing or the whole coral is darkening? From my experience, the purple rim will decrease in width if the coral growth rate slows down due to lower light levels or some water parameters. What are your pH, calcium, magnesium, and alkalinity levels at?

BTW - Your SG is a tad high. I'd gradually lower it to 1.025
