Default Will Anenome Gain back Fluorescence under MH?

I obtained a lime green anenmome approximately 15 months ago

http://www.reefaquariumguide.com/pho...1&thecat=5 00

which has lived in my 150 gallon reef. It has however definitely
darkened to a deeper green color and lost a good deal of its
fluorescence under approximately 550 watts of VHO.

Now that I have it directly under a new 250 watt HQI MH minipendant,
is it possible/likely, that it will return to a lighter, fluorescent
state?

I'd guess no. I couldn't see the pictures as I'm not a member there, but anemones darken up in
their new homes. My BTA is golden brown, and when I bouht it it was lime greeen 15 months ago.

I'm sure if you change bulbs you'll see an effect as the anemone reacts over time, but I doubt
it will fluoresce. If it does, please let us know.
