after around 2 weeks, i noticed that the yellow color is becoming pale but at the same time, the tips are becoming light pink/purple... the change is very subtle but it is still enough for me to notice it... here it is now...

the light pink/purple tips was already apparent when i first got the coral, but not as much as it is now... please advice so i can try to fix the problem if there is a problem...
 
coloring up is a good sign, looks like is doing good to me congrats,dont worry it's doing what we all want ours to do.:D

Depending on your params, lighting, etc. coral color can change. Your coral looks pretty happy and appears to be coloring up. Hopefully you will like the end result. It seems that in the first pic it has a soewhat darker, even possibly a little tan/light brown. in the second picture it looks like it is losing this tan color and moving toward some light purple tips and a lighter body...This looks like a good thing to me.
 
Corals will almost always change color to an extent when place in different tanks, conditions,etc..

Looks healthy to me.
