Hi my pink lemonade frag has lost color due to stress of moving it to new tank. It's kinda a light yellow pink color how do I guess the question is how can I get color back its been two months
 
my only advice is try dosing some trace elements although it will still take weeks-months to regain its full color. Also would make sure its not getting overlighted

Also i would run a overall test of the main elements of your tank and make sure everything is in line.

Edit- as for lighting/placement it all depends on depth of your tank and how high up your lights are. best to rent a Par meter from your LFS.
 
i did i would try dosing some Iodine Potassium to promote their color if its the type of pink lemonade i'm thinking of. its a hue of green then try Iron+
 
Thanks so much man
Color can come back with time, best thing is to just make sure its still feeding which i can see it still doing in the photo. Could try some reefroids to help it along the way for feeding.
 
Your coral is bleached.......just move it away from direct light so it can darken back up. Then move it accordingly out into the open again.

Once it's populated with zoo you can probably move it to an area with full light and par.

I wouldn't add any foods/additives or elements.

So now I'm noticing lots of color! Polyps extension is not the best but it's still maybe a 1inch frag but it is incrusting
