My experience with Magnifica, one Onyx pair completely lost their back in a Magnifica, then recovered all their black in the same Magnifica after 6 months. It was pretty drastic. I have it on a thread somewhere her many years ago.

I don't know the health of the anemone have anything to do with it. I did not think the Magnifica was unhealthy anytime during this this strange color change.
They never recovered the "onyx" black despite being with no other anemone than gigantea. I have them now with my 3 new giganteas (the blue and purple ones from AC and the bleached tan one from LA). Before that I had them with another purple.

The interesting thing is that pair 2 got a lot more black after I gave them the large purple crispa. Though a lot of the female's body orange turned into a washed-out brown.
