What type of lighting do you have? They are definitely bleached so keep them at the bottom of the tank. Probably best in a shaded area or at the far sides of the tank to get less light. It will just take a lot of time to get the colours back.

I have T5 50/50 compact fluorescent lights. The stock lights that come with the RSM 130.

I moved them both to the bottom under a rock ledge, they still get light but its pretty well shaded.

It looks like it might (it's raised in the middle like a plate)



Unfortunately I can't get zoomed in enough from top down.
