Blue xenia turned tan

[sumant19]

Hi

So I got blue anthelia from fellow reefer and since 2nd day in my aquarium it turned tan. I tried to keep it in different locations with high light, low light, high flow, low flow etc. giving enough time at each location. But no change in color from tan to blue.
My water parameters are good and rest of the corals are happy and growing well..

What could be the reason for anthelia to change color? They seem to be among hardiest corals.

Its anthelia and not xenia as title says... i cant edit the title...

corals will change color depending on the intensity and spectrum of lights from tank to tank.
also, i would start the corals in the bottom 1/3 of the tank and let them adjust. these things can take time.
