Question

Regal Tang changing color??


Ok, I'm sure this must have been asked before but.... Blueberry (no I don't get to name the fish) my regal tang's black stripes keep on fading to grey / green, then go back to black a few minutes later. Is this stress or normal or the large amount of whiskey I've consumed due to the date today?

Happy new year to all

Steve

My Hippos/ Regals (whichever name you fancy) do the same thing. One second its a dark jet black coloration .. then moments later its more like a greyish-charcoal coloring. Theyve been doing this for sometime now.. So. i wouldnt worry since no ill effects have occured.
