I have an acro colony that I recently purchsed that is a light brown but has a white color towards the tips. I would say it starts about 3 cm from the tips. Polyps are fully extended and coral looks healthy. Could this be bleaching or just a white color on the coral. How can I tell the difference?

New growth can exhibit a white or lighter color at the tips, which is a good sign. Can you post a pic?

I added a pic, hope this helps. I really dont think it is bleaching now that Ive done a bit of reading on it. It seems as though its just the corals natural colors. Like I said previously, its not showing any signs of stress and polyps are fully extended.
