Default Too much light / leaves are red-burgandy

Hi. About 2 weeks ago I got a new T5 light set up. I didn't put the bulbs to close to start because these plants weren't used to that much light. So far all plants are doing great under these bulbs, but one catleya in particular is not adjusting well. The 3 latest leaves have turned red/burgandy. I know that's their way to protect themselves from a sunburn.

I have since moved it from under the lights to a bright spot close to the lights.

The question is: Will the leaves go back to being green? or will they always be red?
This won't kill the plant will it?
