Pavona Coral coming back from the grave?

[lilfish717]

My pavona coral came with another coral and they were my first corals ever. After about a month both the corals appeared to be dying then 2 hermit crabs were all over it all day from when I went up to go to work and came home. I removed then in the morning but they still went back. When I came home they were on it. Both corals appeared to be dead. In 1 day they lost all color and everything. The pavona went completely brown. We're now going on 2 months since completely browning out. I figured hey maybe they'll come back to life and they're my first corals ever, they're going to stay in my tank. So, I put them in low light/low flow to see what happens. Well I was looking tonight and 2 of the 4 sides(its a 3/4in. completely square frag) are getting little streaks of neon green color visible under blue only lights. One side has a whole streak from one edge to the other. Is it coming back? If so I'm very happy.

Bump!

Did yours come back? Mine is doing exactly the same thing. Went brown everywhere except for the edges, and looks like a little bit of green is coming back under blue light. Sexy shrimp were bothering it a lot, before I took them out. I was thinking of removing it, but maybe I'll put it in a corner of the tank and wait it out.
