Too much or not enough light?

I have a green/brown rhodactis that has turned much more brown than green in my tank. The only time I can see any green is at night when it has shrunk all the way down, and I shine a light on it. I have 4x54w T5s over a standard 55 gal display, 2 10k and 2 actinics. The rhodactis is on the 4" DSB. Is this indication of too much or not enough light for it?

It could just be the color of the shroom. Give it more light and see what happens

It's lost color since I got it, it used to be greener. I'll move it up and see what happens.
