Recovery of a bleached coral

Does anybody have experience to recover bleached corals? I'm wondering if it's possible. I got one almost completely bleached SPS recently.

As long as it is still alive, it can fully recover. If you get rid of the reason it is bleached (too much light, not enough food, too high nutrients) it will come back. It will likely take some time (months) to get its color back, but it can be done.

I had one I thought was dead for two years come back to life. Bleached out, algae grew on the skeleton. Then it came back.
