kylefish02 Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 ye this colour turns up very often,I believe it is due to stress but CatBrat had a male that stayed that colour sometimes.When i had bristlenose they used to go this colour when stressed aswell as the normal blotchy colour when stressed.So not a colour mutation i dont think its just the ones that seemed to be stressed. kyle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 They do vary in colouration even if not stressed. Mine change colour for no apparent reason sometimes. Moody perhaps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PENEJANE Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 I have found that my bristlenoses change colour depending on where they are in the tank. When on the driftwood they normaly appear very dark in colour but when on the gravel they go blotchy and the same applies for the male on his cave (he goes blotchy) so it could just be a camoflarge effect. Or I could be way off and got sick fish but they are still alive and breeding hehe :bounce: (love this new smiley!!) cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcon021 Posted October 7, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 They are the same colour no matter where they are, they have been in a bare tank...same colour...with gravel....same colour....with sand...same colour.. The best thing is wait for them to breed and look at the young But they do not change dark. The male does go blotchy but its brown and yellow blotchy colour. Wait and see what happens i guess. 8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
