coralline turning white

[EB847]

when you cure lr and the coralline turns white, is it dead or will the original color come back at some point? and why is it that it looked good at the lfs after being there for a few days, then bleached out when i got it home? i thought it may be cured due to no smell...

Bad news = white is dead coraline
good news = coraline typically sporulates as it dies. If conditions are right it will come back with a vengence.

Anytime I do a water change the coralline on my back wall and the top of the rocks turns white due to air contact but it does rebound to purple again after a little while.
