Your 0 nitrates are probably what is causing (or at least contributing) to your pale colors.
 
So what I can do?? First i switch off skimmmer
You can turn off your skimmer, feed more, or dose nitrates. I prefer to leave my skimmer on 24X7 due to the other benefits of running it. I would start by feeding more (or adding another fish if possible). If that doesn't work, you can dose nitrates. I use potassium nitrate when needed but there are a lot of different options available.
 
+1 on the nitrates. Also what kind of lighting and schedule do you have?
 
I have 8 ×39 T5 plus strip led Blue ....
Start at 9,30 morni only 2 tube....at 11 all light ....and at 14 start leds.
