If you're talking about the most recent pic here, orange storm and sub zero. In more previous posts you can see the other two, also an orange storm and a black storm.

Some, shes still not fully extended, but at least not completely retracted anymore. We changed out the light which seemed to be a lot brighter and think that may have been the issue. We have been slowly ramping down the intensity.

Our little hammer frag now has 3 1/2 heads (as opposed to the 1 1/2 it came with). Not sure if it's happy or stressed.
The rest of the corals are looking bleached since we changed out the light. We've since lowered it to 10%.

Anyone have thoughts on how long it usually takes for them to recover?

This one looks pretty good to me. Your on the right track with the lights. Just slowly raise the intensity once they look better and if you notice any stress go back a step. May need to re arrange some if lighting is drastically different.

Changed from redsea 90 to hydra32, and even at <10% the light seems much brighter. All corals are more retracted and faded. Hammer is the only one still with good color but splitting.

Ele is opening back up, even had some tentacles out, plate looks like he's getting some color back. Frog still not fully opening and lobo is now upset after looking fabulous. Can't seem to keep everyone happy at the same time!
