It looks alright for the most part, maybe a tiny bleached but thats not a huge deal if you have the right lights on it now. What do you have?

Not 100% sure, but I think its when there isnt enough light, the anemone looses its color slowly.

Bleaching is caused by die off of zooxanthela (sp) if you have the new hood one the way you should be fine! When a coral or anemone bleach they start to get whiter and whiter or more transparent looking. It is a problem that can be stopped but only by changing the source...like insufficient lighting, or too much lighting too fast (by adding a new high power light) and not acclimating tank.
 
Nice tanks everyone! Shortly after posting the pics of the 20gxh, the stand it was on gave out in the middle of the night. I woke up to water pouring on my floor. It sucked. I had to move everything to my 28g marineland bowfront. That was almost a month ago and I'm posting some pics of it as it sits now. I did not lose a single piece, but a few did receed. That has stopped and the colors and new growth are coming back. The acropora efflo and scoly have found new homes(sold).
