Are the corals brown or are they colored up and you are just looking for more color?
Lets start with the easy one: What k rating are your bulbs?
Second: The best thing to do for your SPS/LPS is provides a very low nitrate and phosphate environment.
LPS depends on the lighting and it also helps if you feed them (depends on the LPS)
SPS there is a lot of stuff out there, some of it is probably snake oil, but there are a few things that people do use consistently. I also know a lot of people who dose nothing and still have amazing colors. Look for amino acids and sps specific type of foods. Elos and Zeo make a bunch of this stuff. Just be careful as they can raise nitrates/phosphates.
