Sea Cucumber turns colors?

[fihsboy]

I have two sea cucumbers.......both a pale yellow. Just looked at my tank, since this morning. The one has turned RED. What gives? Bad? Good? I know one thing...........its pretty cool even if its bad.

No one? Im surprised. I had to go to work, which is where im at now......thats why the pic is sloppy. It just really cought me off guard to see it change so radically in the matter of a few hours.....

No one has any idea whats goin on? Im wondering if its the vodka im dosing.....these guys eat bacteria, and vodka effects bacteria.......so how would it effect the cukes? Im drawing blanks here guys, any help at all is appreciated.

Wow, no clue what is going on. Maybe it is going supernova

I dont know. But I check all my parameters, nothing is wrong at all. Magnesium was 1200 no measurable nitrates salinty was fine......I cant figure it out. Ive asked a few people that have been in the hobby for a while.....they have no clue either. Its still running around my tank having a good time, digesting and expeling sand. Its breathing fine......I just cant figure out why it changed colors. Im glad it did.......its sweet. To quote my lfs owner (and buddy) Maybe it just felt like changing colors.

Remember the brighter the color the more poison it can contain............Well I have heard that as a general rule of thumb

It looks like you made him angry, I hope you didn't insult his mother, that would just be childish and totally counter-productive.
