i've noticed a very distinct and rapid color charge in my sexy anemone shimp at night. this head and part of the tail turn a translucent cyan green in color and its eyes get a red tinge to them.
im posting a pic but it does not show the full extent of the change it took me a few minutes to find him after turning on the light, ill try to get better ones soon. he changes back to "normal" (brown) color within 5 minutes of the light being on... i haven't been able to find any information on this or any account of rapid color change in any crustacean for that matter but i don't have a degree in it or anything
