Default Bleached Algae

I made the big booboo of leaving my lights on for to long and started bleaching some of my coralline algae. Was wondering if over time .....will this repair itself or am i going to have to look at this mistake forever?

If it doesn't color back up (which it probably will, I think) it will get grown over by new stuff! Not to worry!

PS, I have my lights on timers cause....well.....I am a mental transient!
