I rescued a toadstool leather frag from another hobbiest. It's completely bleached, but has shown improvements since I received it on Saturday. It is starting to show polyps extension, but almost no color. Any suggestions on getting it to improve.

I would put it where it can receive a good amount of light and flow and leave it be to recover and heal.

I would suggest powder foods. A bleached coral has no xoo's to turn light into food for the coral, so food source has to come from the water. Multivitamins or trace elements would also help.
