I bought some birds nest coral, and its turning brown??? I have LED lighting, and everything else is doing well. I feed my corals, I've moved it a few times, but it started turning brown on the tips, and is continuing down the coral.. does anybody know why this could be happening?

You probably don't have enough light. SPS corals tend to turn brown when the lighting isn't sufficient.

| Did you buy it from a fish store or an individual?

In my research for my own salt tank I found that most of the LED lighting systems are not reef capable. You might want to check the manufacturers website to find this out. Also take into account the depth of the tank and where it sits in the tank.
