A lot of it is based on lighting. Certain spectrums just make colors pop. Aside from that, there are lots of foods designed for bringing out color. Shrimp is also really good for reds.

It's really simple, have "prestine" water conditions and feed good amounts of quality frozen foods. I feed my fish a variety of Hikari frozen cubes and chunks of Rods. I feed my 14 fish 10 or so cubes of various Hikari and a chunk of Rods every evening. Fish are 5 triggers, 2 clowns, 3 tangs, Harlequin Tusk, squirrel fish, bicolor blenny and a damsel. All my fish are colored up as they should be and are nice and solid.

What kind of light do you have on your tank? That has a huge affect on colors too. Mine makes everything greyish.
