Recovering Acro color from brown through green

[jjencek]

I have several acros that had not been happy and they turned brown from all different colors they started with. They are getting happier and starting to color again, but they are all turning nice green.

Is that a normal progress for returning acros to the original coloration? Will they be green first than continue getting their "real" color back?

Yes, it seems when introducing frags they lose their color and go green before coloring back up while adjusting to “your” tank. Stressed SPS brown out and when parameters are corrected, go green and then color back up albeit taking a little longer because of the stress event.
