Torch Coral loosing little color

Hey Reefers, 

I have a Torch Coral that I recently got and his color is starting to fade out on one side. He was a golden I was told and had light golden brown tentacles. Past week he started showing loss of coloration on side closest to the light, little bit on other side as well. Still seems open and he just ate a bunch the week prior. Reef Roids. 
I had two peppermint shrimp that I noticed started picking at him and I removed them the next day. Not sure if it’s just left over stress from that or what.
my Alkalinity is a little high at like 10dkh, calcium is a little low at 380ppm. 
temp stays around 81-82. 
medium current.
I have also noticed a second mouth developed and it appears to be splitting  slowly. My first time working with corals so I’m not sure and wanted to post a pic and see what feedback I could get. 
thanks! 
Troy
