Anyone with Grape Juice acro that kind lend some advice.
I've had this frag for about 6 mos, and I can't get it to color up. Lately, it also lost PE. Piece is brownish/peach. I had it up high in good flow, and I moved it to medium level strong flow a few months ago. It started to respond and then went to crap. I have minimal growth, but no color.

Most others in tank have great color and growth.

Under T5's (dimmable sunpower)
 
This is a tricky coral to color up... Once you frag and that frag browns out, it's usually only new growth that will color up and it likes to be blasted with light. In short, just give it some time. Also, check for red bugs or something nipping ocassionally. IME it's a coral that will keep its polyps retracted at the slightest distrubance.

Yup! Very hard to get it looking good after fragging. Mine browned out and 4 months laters has started to turn blue with green highlights again. No PE in 3 months either...
