How does a bleached RBTA get it's color back?

[hpasternak]

I had a RBTA bleach 9 months ago due to a lighting change. If it releases all of its Zooanthx. how will it get it's color back. It has split and it has been 9 months and still is bleached.

Feed it daily small bits of food and good lighting and it should gain its zooenthelle back in no time.
Mine was bleached when i got it and it took about 3 months to get its colour back.

I feed it 3 times aweek silversides. If it loses all of its Zooanthelle does it have the ability to produce more????

Just letting you know guys for future reference its spelled..."zooxanthellae."

And no I did not just go look it up on the correct spelling.
