How long have you had it?
 
Was it pale yesterday? Or are you suggesting it instantly became pale after feeding? Typically they are low light coral. Looks as though it might be in the front where it would get a lot of light.
 
Its never really been bright at all since i had it but seems to be doing fine. As i fed the water it curled up and went even more pale and stretched out. Yeah its at the front but on the sand. Its not bleaching so my light mustnt be too strong for it

Well, pale = bleaching. If it loses color and turns dark, that would be browning. If you are confident in your lighting, I would let it be.
