Give it some time. It will colour back up.

yeah not uncommon for new pieces to brown out especially if theres nutrient differences in the two systems.

keep on your parameters and stability and it will color up.

Well I moved it as close to the light fixture as is possible in my aquarium and phosphates are falling. (not fast enough)

Hopefully it comes back. How could I tell if it was completely gone?

It'll turn a nice pretty white color.
And can someone explain how to get it to brighten up? I only see new growth nice and bright when a coral browns out. For the most part anyways

Typically once a coral gets what it needs, the whole piece will color up. I had a piece brown out in the back of my frag tank, once I put it back into a good spot in the DT, it turned bright blue again within a week or two.

Kind of same topic so not trying to hijack.
So Brad did the base of your SPS kind of brownout under your LEDs? I noticed mine do that and they never did that under MH. Which makes me think there's not enough ummmm I dunno, spread I guess with LED

[Aquattro]

No, the LEDs kept the SPS constant from base to tip. Just a slight loss in overall tone. Even at the lower areas of the tank.
