I'm running the lights at 45% and have brought them up from 25% over a 6 week period, everybody else is doing fine and the Setosa is in the middle of the tank.

Is it directly under the 40 degree optics? if so maybe you should move it to a different location, it might be getting too intense for the setosa. BTW how long do you have it at that intensity?

It is under the 40 degree optics. This morning when I checked the tank the brown spot was gone and location it was at is now a brilliant deep pink color, I don't know this little guy has got me all confused.
