- colour morph fire eel help question
Never seen one get that light when stressed, although, that is kind of what it looks like. They definitely can lighten and darken their colors based on their stress level and surroundings.
It could just be a special fire eel that is capable of changing its color more than others can. However, it could be that there is something quite wrong with this eel.

It's not always clear why such genes activate, but it usually appears at random.

Snow flake eel
For an animal to morph their color ONE time, I've heard plenty. But to morph back to original color after the first change, that's a first.
