i doubt that that is a bad sign, so much as a reaction to the change in light. many plants coloring is dependent on the amount of light that plant receives. your plant will probably be fine in the light levels it has, but will not have the vibrant red coloring.

I bought a prayer plant (Maranta leucoreura) a couple months back, and everything has been doing fairly well, except the undersides of the leaves. When I first got the plant the bottoms were a beautiful dark red, but they are slowly losing the red and turning green. Im pretty sure this is bad so if anyone has some recommendations I would be very grateful
