Default Metall catalytic converter is glowing

Hi!
I'm using 100cell metall catsbon my supercharged C4 with a Haltech ECM. If i start the engine and let it run at idle to get operating temperature the cats are glowing. The engine runs with oxygen sensor 800mV and my wideband o2 sensor between 14,7-11,5.
It's possible the glowing comes from not burned fuel?

yes. typically too rich.

get this fixed or you can melt down (and clog ) the cat.
