How to color up jelly bean chalice

[Damian reef boi]

So I got this jellybean chalice but it isn't very colorful the base is like a maroon/ brown color so how do I get all the colors its supposed to have in it?

If they fragged from the blue side that is spot on. Not sure if the red/orange will come back but it could. Once it grows out you will see that green at the edge probably.

Hope u didn't pay jellybean price , sorry to say

what is the tank alkalinity and phosphate level ?

 

[Damian reef boi]

Alkalinity is around 10ppm and phosphates I usually go based of on the algea and also coloration of my acros

Mount it and let it grow out. Give it 4-6 months and it should be there.

Should I put it on high or low light?

It is not in my tank that's a picture i found on google that looks super similar to the mother colony i bought it from

 

[Damian reef boi]

The lfs was using all blues and the colors were not that bright but they said it was a jelly bean chalice so I decided to buy it to see if I could color it up.

Low light

I've seen corals change colors so regularly, it's very possible once it's happy it colors up, only time and tank conditions will give you the final verdict.
