    Re: angel fish question

    How old are they? What color was the fish before it started changing? Into what color is it changing? Is it a color change, or are markings appearing more noticeable, etc.?

      Lisa, some phenotypes will have more of a change of expression than others. If I remember correctly you have a dark zebra, a zebra lace and a standard zebra. These should not show as much change in expression as say a Koi as it matures. I would not be concerned about a minor change, but if one of your dark ones is getting light in color, let me know. If what you are seeing is some dark spots between the stripes, that is normal on some zebra, I will check this evening and see if any of the ones I have left from that spawn are showing any noticable changes.

          ok michael got onto me for not giving enough background info on my tank, and the fish, bit it is just that my lightest fish is starting to darken up. But I love them dearly, they are so fun to just sit and watch.

            the lighter one darkening up some should not be a problem, if the dark ones start lightening, then we will need to talk. Remember the fish you have are all siblings from a dark zebra lace pair.
