My digitatas and montipora confusa all have white tips. They are just new growths

It's the AI Hydra LED lights so it may be too much light ? They are about 18 inches from the lights ... maybe lowering them in the tank would be the next logical step ?

Move it a low light area for a few weeks and let it recover. It might take longer than that but you should see a full recovery.

Looks like bleached tips from leds more so than growth tips to me. Possible to get more detailed picture?

I think it's growth tips too, but the picture is too crappy to tell for sure.
