I don't think increasing his photoperiod would help since his corals are lightening, which is usually a sign of too much light or pests.

If it's occuring mostly on your montis, I think you have monti nudibranchs. Do a search on RC (when it's available) for 'nudibranch'. There are alot of threads which explain what it is and how to deal with them. There aren't that many treatments you can perform, it seems like only removing these little bastards manually is the way to get rid of them.

Red bugs don't normally go after montis, but mainly acros. So if your acros are spotting or receeding from the base up, you may want to take a magnifying glass and have a look.
