Not Enough Light Cause Loss Of Color?

[BigEZ77]

Hi All,

Recently got my first LPS corals...two pavona, encrusting monti and digitata. I feel like they might be losing color. Could this be caused by not enough light? They're high up in the tank but I don't have my light super high so I don't think its too much light, and they don't look like they're bleaching. More like a brown/beige color.

Thanks,

Corals sometimes lose some color when they are fragged or during shipping or water parameters are different in your tank than where they came from or whatever makes them mad. Some even turn brown it's pretty common and they should come back. That is as long as they are getting adequate light and flow and the tank is stable.
