Coloring up browned frags

[cichlid9]

I finally stabilized my kh at 9 and my cal at 440 thanks to some two part dosing for about 3 weeks now. Next I plan on feeding my tank because I do not have any fish. I have noticed that some of the browned frags are starting to lighten up. I was wondering is that the first step in showing some of the colors that the frags should be? Thanks for answering my dumb questions guys :wavehand:

Yes, give it time and keep it stable. It can take a few months for things to come back around.

Thanks mammoth, its just crazy that some pieces would brown but my green slimer would always be the brightest green with great PE regardless of all the dumb moves I made. All of my frags would grow, just not show great color. I guess I'm slowly learning.

Time and stability, I got several frags from a buddy of mine that had been neglected and were all brown. Right after I got them I changed lighting so it took 2 months off them acclimating to my tank then to the new lights and they are just starting to show signs of coloration.
