| I had a frogspawn lose its color and turn brown. Still alive and the color is coming back. I wonder if it was stressed and not a lighting issue? |

Too much flow, too much light
Always chance another coral in tank exuding some toxin inhibiting growth. Softies are well know for doing this.
Best defense against, is more frequent/size of water changes.
Also best answer for other possible problems... Quote:

If new addition to tank I would say too big a lighting difference in your tank compared to where it came from.
Color coming back is good sign.
