Personally I feed that your prata bleach due to lack of lighting.

The colours that you see on your prata are created by zooxanthellae which depends of photosynthesis to survive.

By feeding food, you are feeding the prata but not the symbiotic algae thus instead of producing sugar (food) for the prata, it became a burden and is expelled from the tissue of the prata.

HTH :D
