Do you have a pic before it changed colour? Sps are known to change colour in different tanks, but ssc should still have its signature red/pink tip after colour change. 
 

Also ssc should have very good PE, so probably something is nipping on it and hence stressing it, or the flow is insufficient

Very nice specimen, do keep your lighting blue as much as possible, this type of rainbow acans are known to turn red after a while if the lighting is not optimal

Within the collage, the pic below is the pic when I first got it. The pic on top is what color it is currently.

Ermm I could be wrong, but in my opinion it’s either a mis-ID or a ssc that’s not at its best to begin with, based on that picture 

Furthermore, like what I’ve mentioned, sps may shift colour in a different tank. But if it’s a ssc, then it’s possible to colour it up till it has its fluorescent colour. The process may take up to 6months even in the best tank conditions.

If your tank’s nutrients is not too high at the moment, you may consider feeding amino acids, eg acropower or reef energy AB+, to speed up the process.
