BD turning grey?

[Raynado]

Hi All, my female pup was almost jet black 2 days ago and now she turned full on grey. I've seen my other pups morph this color but not to this extent. My parameters are ok and my other Rays (about the same age 3.5 months) are fine. Can this be a sign of stress? Apart from the color change she's acting normal and eating well..help!

Very interesting, how old and how much is she eating?

Hi Dave- she's about 3.5 months now and she eats like no tomorrow. Her diet is squid, market prawns and fish meat. I can't think of anything that would stress her out. she's kept in a 8x3x2.5 with a 6 ft sump which I checked and everything looks normal.

Many younger rays will develop more spots while in this grey state... it's normal for some younger black rays to go from black to grey and vice versa several times before staying black

Thanks, Vincent. For the sake of my own sanity, I'll keep a close eye on her and my water parameters.
