I have a colony of zoas that have finaly won their battle with hair algae a few months ago. Unfortunately about 60% of the heads have no colour. Any tricks to bringing the colour back?

Are the colors getting dull and less vibrant or are they loosing their colors and turning white?

The eye has turned from orange to almost white.

keep up with your tank maintenance, give the zoas some light, and the polyps will regain their color. in the past, i've found some zoas underneath rocks that lost color. they always colored back up after a month or two. good luck!

That's encouraging. I have been reading some of the discussion on Vitamin C supplements. Might give that a go as well.
