Went out of town for a week and a half had a family member take care of my tank come home she filled my sump up all the why to to top and dropped my salinity from 1.025 to 1.021 this acro is a purple tip what can I do to get the color back and what is a time frame
 
Slowly raise your salinity back up to 1.025. If any of your other parameters are out of normal range, I would raise those up slowly. You should start to see your acro regain its color in the coming weeks as you get everything back in line. Best of luck!

It’s like forgetting to water your lush green grass in Vegas or phoniex on a hot summer day.. It takes months to get it a green again after yellowing out over night lol ..

I don't think it will take months, I think @Troylee was just making an analogy between your Acro and the scorched Earth they call lawns where he lives 🤣😜🙃
