Favia Rescue help

[cfredallen]

Need help with a favia. Rescuing it from myself actually. It was not glued down and got knocked over by a snail. It sat upside down on the bottom behind some rocks for several days before I noticed it was missing. color very faded but does not appear to be receding. Was a bright fluorescent green but now is very brown.

I got it back in the light and glued down is there anything else I can do to help it?

As long as the fleshy part is not damaged it should regain its color but if the brown is brown jelly looking and blows off with a turkey bastor it will not recover...if so remove it so it does not spead its disease to other corals...Bran corals do well in sand and like to fill with water and move a little. Always putty and glue corals to liverock so this will not happen..
