Once a fish starts to fade does it always finish the process or do some just get "stuck" somewhere in between. The small areas where my rd has started to fade look awesome however it has made little progress beyond that in about a month or so. Is he done? Is there anything I can do to encourage more fading? Or will he eventually finish fading? Any info is much appreciated. Thx
 
Fish in question is about 6"ale red dragon most of fading is happening in fins primarily dorsal and pelvic with little to no fading appearing on body yet
 
I have a 2 yr old fader that faded completely at 6 months and now has dark markings that comes and goes. As they mature, their color intensify. Each will fade in time...no way to predict or speed op the process. I know that they do get pretty ugly before they become a thing of beauty.
