Corals receiving too much or not enough

How will I know if my corals are receiving too much light?

Zoanthids .. Anemone... button coral

yung button medyo parang nakalbo ng onti, so nilagay ko sya sa may shade, nag okay na,

yung anemone naman nag-vomit ng brown substance tapos nagshrink; pero nung nag cut-down ko ng light seems okay, pag dating sa zoas parang they are turning brown?

ayun ang history

Di kaya algae yun kaya nagiging brown yung zoa? Open pa rin ba?

Fully open lahat. wala rin akong algae bloom. lahat ubos ng snails ko, kulang pa minsan.

I read elsewhere, may gumamit ng hydrogen peroxide sa zoa, nawala naman daw yung brown stuff. I'm not really familiar on how to do it so I'll let someone else who knows more to say something about it.
