Will these frags recover?

I was target feeding my Idaho Grape monti the other night and it decided to release some stringy material. Didn't think much of it and the fact that it got on two of my other corals until the next day when I saw this. These two frags lost color where the "stuff" from the IG Monti got on them. The monti is also a little light on that side as well. It was the first time I target fed it and the last after these results. Does this appear to be normal response to whatever the monti released? I am thinking similar to warfare. And do you think they will recover the color? It isn't getting any worse at this point.

Appleberry Monti - just a small tan area near center.


Cherry Red Monti - much lighter area
 
Yes, both wil recover IF you figure what imbalance triggered the stress.
Ive had some pieces that i thought were dead come fully back to life.
 
They will recover, it's just going to take awhile especially since they are frags. Someone posted a thread in the sps section where his whole tank got wiped out because of warfare. I think he was from Australia. Check it out

The stress came from the target feeding, which I don't plan to try again. It was the first time I tried it and that Cap and it bit me in the behind. From now on, I will add food to water and let them pick it up naturally. Hope it doesn't take too long, they are growing pretty quick.
