GSP lost color

[bluecheese]

A couple of months ago, I did a fairly aggressive trim on my GSP. The polyps retracted, and stayed retracted for a number of weeks.

The polyps have just recently started extending again. But now they're brown.

GSP went from this circled in red

To this circled in red

To this

Will the color come back eventually?

Not a super experienced reefer here but I've been dabbling for 3- 4 years now. Same thing happened to me once when I tried to trim some back a little too aggressively, browned out for close to 4 months, color slowly came back with stable parameters. I was also intermittently using Restor from Brightwell aquatics, not sure if that helped or not but either way the green came back just as strong if not stronger eventually.

I’ve trimmed mine back many times, gets ticked and then returns to it’s formal glory.

Thanks for the replies.

I would assume it comes back, but only time will tell.
