This guy was originally green tentacle with pink tips (?). I neglected the tank and he got bleached. I’m taking care of the tank now. He has been like this for 3 months after I am back to “caring” routine. Picture shows bluish due to camera and lighting, but he is white… with white tips.
He’s currently sitting in the bottom of the tank, off to the side. Any chance of recovering?… (assuming tank parameters are good. I don’t have any tank testing parameters). What can I do to get it back to form?
Ignore the bubble algae…. Working on it.

It will recover over time. Things have to be stable/ideal. You can try and move it to lower light to assist with color coming back

Thanks. Would it be ok half shadow- half light?

He is at bottom, off to the side right now. I don’t think I can pick another spot with lesser “out in the open” light.
