That sounds like the opposite of what you want. The brown is atleast color of something. The white looks like dead skeleton/rock.

i though when u see a coral get brown that its dying so i though u want it to stay white because it was growing when it was white

Looks like a rock covered in algae to me...

 

[chris_s918]

It's not algae it's hard as a rock

 

[chris_s918]

But I'm not using halides I'm using 36 watt leds Aquatic life led which. It's not getting tons of light like it should

I looks like an SPS, certainly not an LPS. Any white on a stony coral is death, the brown is likely tissue or algae.
