Not a SBB owner...YET...but SPS frags shipped have a tendency to brown out, and in time color back up. Have you ever purchased frags from a show that was no more than 5 hours from your house? If so then you will understand. I feel shipping corals adds stress that we are unaware of yet. Whether its the temps or atmospheric pressure, I feel no one knows, but, I have driven frags from TSA and had them shipped and the frags I drove up to Atlanta from Orlando looked far better and almost never lost their color. I would give it some time to color up. :)
