I would move it to a space with less light. Fading color = too much light in case of red dragon. Once settled, it will grow like crazy. I can see white growth tips all over mine after it was saved from RTN few weeks ago

My tank does have a lot of flow, but it is a bit sheltered where it is now. However, the spot I am thinking of moving it to, would be even more sheltered from flow. And partial shade, although hoping not too little light there. After all it is an acro.

Solutions are easy. The real difficulty lies in discovering the problem.

Well, that seems to be contrary to what others say, and I have read. There is no sign of rtn or stn with mine, just not doing much and lost colour.

How long have you had yours?
