They are losing their color because you went to a lesser light. Can you give more information about the wattage of the T5s you were using, and how many vs the PCs you're now using?

couldn't it just be a color morph from a change of K in the pc's from the t5's, if the pc's are more white than wouldn't you get less green fluorescence from green corals?

Ya, but he said they are losing color. So I assume he means that the color loss is progressing. My guess is that the PCs aren't strong enough for the Candy Canes to thrive.

what wattage were the t5's? consider a couple other things, did you change anything other than lighting? flow, tank placement, ?

the T5s were only lasting me 3 months at a time and i kept having to replace the whole unit, so one of the lfs in kamloops suggested the PCs. i wanted halides but couldnt find anything to fit my tank ( only 12 in. by 4 ft). im starting to think the store was just trying to make a quick sale though
