1. cautious with bleach - it will take off mildew and dead occupants but
will dissolve the coral as well.
2. Thinking of the top of head a color wheel would be handy. Think of
yellow taken out by bluing.
I'd try a sample if one broke in shipment...
3. what does it look like. There are natural pink, and red and black
naturally.

I bought it because the only other piece I had that appeared to be related was tinted a delightful shade of pepto-bismol pink. Has anyone had any experience in trying to get rid of the tinting? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
