Are u asking for help on how to color them up? No offense but I don't see any ? Here or point lol
What are your parameters and lighting
How old are your bulbs and what type lighting and good water quality will bring the color back..
Almost tile to swap them. I've found that with a little phosphate, color is better but that might just be ime. I keep mine at .01
Food will raise the phosphate. Either food for your fish or food for your corals.
you can raise PO4 but just by simply feeding. you mentioned you do not have any fish yet. get yourself Reef Roids or something similiar and feed your corals. do not overfeed though. just test your PO4 till you get your desired level.
Before you start trying to raise your phosphate, find out exactly what it is. I may have missed it but what are you using to test it? Only the Hanna in my experience is gonna give your a true or close to true reading.
When did you acquire the frags. You stated at the swap, what swap? If it was recent you need to give them a bit of time.

+ 1 I assume he means the ncpars swap. Also alot of sps brown out after long trips especially if it was cold out
Well here's a question. Do you have other acros in there and are they brown? Also when you bought these acros yesterday, were they brown in the vendors tank or only after you got home?
