No real difference

Mouth looks better and the black widow stripes are coming in just need the black to take hold

It is still bleached, but it does look like it is a Black Widow. Just take good care of it and feed it, small amount every 2-3 days. I am sure he will recover well.

Dumb question here, are you dosing any chems in this tank? I only ask because I believe I see Bryopsis algae(page 3). If that’s the case, the common reefer would dose to kill the algae.

Also, Could maybe water change help to bring her color back?
Awesomr Nem though!

It is but it’s bleached. You can clearly see the webbing on the oral disk in other pics on the thread.

Anything I should do to help regain its color??

Try feeding it consistently maybe like every 3 days just small pieces (not big chunks) of food like shrimp or squid. Since its bleached it will need protein as a source of food since most of its zooxanthellae is gone.

How is it looking now??

I've personally never had an anenome recover from being bleached. It seems like vendors I bought from were too cheap to keep them under proper lighting so now I only buy anenomes that are kept under proper LED.

Hopefully yours recovers, maybe try feeding it small mysis if you haven't already. If you have tried feeding it, does the food stick to it and does it eat?
