This is a Wrasse Den for a bare bottom. It's a great idea, but it's dyed fake purple.
Call me crazy, but in a 60G cube with white rock the purple dye looks way too fake.
Is there a way to remove it, other than just sandpapering it to the point it'd end up removing the rock-like texture?

I know carib-sea life rock ends up losing its colour over time, so I was wonder if there's a "fast forward", or any other way to retain the texture and losing the dyed colour.

Thank you guys!

Once all the rock gets coraline algea growth on it, it will all end up looking the same. The coloring likely goes all the way throughout the rock.
