Bleaching GTBA - What to do?

[reefwars]

a pic would be needed but if its eating and still moves about then its more than likely ok, its not unusual to see color variations in them......what are you running for lights???

bubbles are somewhat hardy and they often change shades of green and their tentacles can go from stringy like spaghetti or really bubbly and plump randomly.

not much you can do for any nem besides make sure its eating getting light and its important to always maintain clean water with no salinity drops or temp rises cheers

If he eats and mouth is close tight, he will be fine.
Just keep feeding he. Color will come back.

Sorry, still no pics. I just can't get the color variation to show. (A lot more practice needed). For lights I have 4x96w T5HO (can't remember color makeup). Salinity is fairly constant at 1.025, I only ever replace about 5 gallons of fresh water at any given time (total water display and sump = 180gallon) and the temp is fairly constant at 78(d).

But it seems through some comments here and some reading I have been doing that if he is eating (and he fed really well yesterday) that he should be ok.

Thanks for helping relieve a new aquarist's fears.

I have a GBTA that bleached out with my halides... He is under T5's now and VERY SLOWLY is his color coming back, I feed him every 2 days a variety of frozen foods.
