Hi,
Was hoping i could get some help here. 3 weeks ago I bought a pair of bartlett anthias from another member. When i showed up they were very pale, essentially white. Other than this they looked healthy though, nice and fat. He assured me that they had only been eating pellets for a bit and proper nutrition would bring the colors back. I have been feeding reef frenzy, rods, mysis and new life pellets and they have a little more color but pretty much still white. Is this common and does it just take them a long time to color back up or is it a sign of old fish or something that they're stuck with? Or anything that i can to do help their color?
Thanks for the help,
James
