Are you running carbon or gfo that might be leaching particles into water column causing the tips to burn?

Sure does look like ALK burn,are you topping off with kalk?any particles of that that might be getting thru also?Sometimes Bigger colonies do this fue to the change in water chemistry from moving into the new tank.

I would just leave it alone, and let it finish adjusting to your tank...it looks somewhat content because I see the polyps are out. I've noticed my sps tips to turn white when they're growing also.

Is it completely gone? Have you tried moving it down lower in the tank, it might have gotten light shocked with the LED's. was it light acclimated?

Hmmm. Ppb means parts per billion and isn't a measurement of ph. Ph is from 0 to 14 where 7 is neutral.
