If the first pic you posted of the candy cane is how it looks now then I would say its looking better than the 2nd pic which was definately bleached....

You can try throwing frozen water bottles in your tank all day but it didn't do much for me when I was running a 50g tank and one hot summer day I lost 3k in coral. Lesson learned, if you don't have a ton of coral or a lot invested in your reef by the way of coral try the ice method. If you have a $1000 or more in coral in your tank with sps I would consider getting a chiller as people are selling them for a fair price on here. When my corals died my tank hit 88 before that they were not happy but alive, the next day dead. Good luck!
