Ok. If they came in brown but colored up but in a faded way I would say lack of nutrients. Acro power should help. Try feeding some DT's oyster eggs or Dr. g's SPS Max. More fish poop and food will help tool.


I think I'm confusing everyone lol nothing browned out in my tank, they've came into my tank browned and they regained color but very faded. I think I'll do a algae scrubber to start

Okay, what to do about the algae though? I think if I fix that, it'll help me figure what my real levels are to promote the colors and growth.

Think a scrubber will still be a good idea, or vodka

You don't have a nutrient issue, I'd go with the scrubber, as I don't think the vodka will help out here any.
