GBTA lost color?

how common is it for a green BTA to loose its color and become pink?

i had a power outage awhile back, power was out for atleast 24 hours before i got a generator hooked up. my return pump got fried some how and i had to replace it, the new pump is the same GPH but i guess from it being brand new it is for sure stronger. since then the GBTA has moved around alot and a few weeks ago it finally decided to find a new home as it seems. but now it is no longer the vibrant green it was before all the problems.

will the color come back?

it defilently was not dyed so i know that was not the issue. it also has not accepted any food since this all happened. could that be the issue?

thanks for any help you can give
 
i guess i should have told some more info on the tank.

24g AP with a 70w halide, just changed the bulb 3 days ago. the levels are all good and nothing is bothering it.
 
It could have lost the zooanthelle that gives it the green color. It is probably stressed out so thats why it isn't eating. How long ago was the power outage in relation to the lost color? The anemone walking around could be a problem because usually once they take hold somewhere they don't move.
