Bleached?

[SmokeyCFH]

Saw this at my LFS, just wondering if it's bleached out...I got it for a steal to see if I could bring back the colors. Let me know! Thanks in advance guys and gals!

Frag a piece of it just in case the whole thing goes but is a favia very hardy so it should pull tru

It had some crazy tentacle extension this morning, I now have it under my Orphek pendant, I think it'll pull through, not bad for $5!

Honestly it doesn't look to be in bad shape to me unless I am missing something. Am I? LOL!

Doesn't look terrible to me either. But nice pickup, for a steal too!

Well I remember seeing this piece several months ago and it was all purple as opposed to only half of it, so I told my LFS owner than if he wanted I could throw it under my Orphek to get it growing back again and he was said "you know what, I'll just give this and the zoa's for $10". So I took the deal, I'm hoping to grow it back and then maybe even bring it back to him once its fully healed.

Honestly I have seen morphs like this as well. I think it's going to be great. :)

Well that would be awesome...I guess we'll see! My other war coral is doing great!, excellent growth under this light so I guess we'll see! I'll post update pictures when I see some change :)

It looks healthy to me. I see lots of war corals like that. Nice find!
