Default Getting my Candy Cane to Colour up?

Hey guys,

so I have this candy cane coral that I got from Gold's. It wasnt super colourful when I got it, but it was a decent deal and has a lot of heads. It had probably 22 heads or so when I got it and now has probably 30.

Problem is - I can't really get it to colour up.

What type of care should I give it to promote colouration? I target feed it probably 3 times every 2 weeks or every 5 days or so and its got pretty strong light on it that seems to be helping. Its about a 14" from my 250W MH and 96W actinics for reference.

Ive had the coral for probably 2-3 months now. It has some colour, but not nearly as much as others Ive seen.

Thoughts?
