This coral has been in my tank for 8 months and all of a sudden started to grow. The tan parts are the new growth.

You have new lights?  Adding new supplements?  More flow?  Many things can contribute to new gowth.   Mine usually grow when I forget about them.Smile

I would think so.  Most new growth on corals are different color to the old.

I have a tan acro that I've had for an almost embarrassing long time that only encrusted out.  In the last month it decided it was time to grow and has a light purple color on all the new growth.  Strange creatures for sure..
