I bought this frag a couple of weeks ago I think its a yellow scroll not sure. Its only about two inches long with a mustard color underneath. When I placed it on the sand bed it quickly faded. So last week I pushed it under a shady ledge but it still hasn't colored back up? Can someone please give me some advice. My lighting is a 10k 160 Watt Maxspect Razor LED A:82/B:100 10" off water. All my parameters are within normal ranges. Salinity at 1.026, PH 8.1, ALK 8 DKH Phos & Nitrate zero.

A Scroll coral would be my first guess too. (Turbinaria) As far as it coloring back up goes, your just going to have to give it some time. This is all under the assumption that it does in fact like the position it's in though. If you don't see any improvements in maybe 3 weeks to a month, move it someplace else. GL.
