I think it's bleaching?

I got these lovely brains a few weeks ago. I noticed they were starting to get lighter. They were placed in the lower end of the tank about 1/4 way up. I have a 90g (I know it's deep) with the Nova Extreme Pro light fixture.
I have been spot feeding it at night when the sweepers are out.
I think they might be bleaching. I moved them up yesterday. Any kind suggestions?
The first 2 pics are from the day after I got them and the second 2 are from today.

Take in consideration that they are closer to the light fixture now. But it still seems a little light for me.

The open brain definitely looks like it is dying. I would put it into a low light area and feed meaty foods every other day or so. I don't know about the other one. I am no expert so hopefully someone will come in and agree or give better options.
