So I received a devil finger and a toad stool that were in fairly rough safe a while back, and the toadstool was completely bleached and almost no polyp extension. Now, the toadstool has polyp extension over its whole body (lack of a better term) and still almost 0 color. I think the cap may have just a bit of a pink to it, but nothing really noticeable. So, I have been spot feeding it brightwells aquatics coral Inertia nrg+, is there anything else I should be doing?
 
I would feed it powdered coral food. A bleached coral has no zoo's to transform light into food for the coral, so the coral needs to physically catch food for nutrition.
