my ornate is fading its color

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
what size? they fade some as they age
 
Start off with the obvious: Have you checked your water perameters?
Is it being bullied by any tank mates?
Does it feed well or has it fed well?
Are there any obvious external infections or damage

Pics would be a great help!

guppies usually do have some sort of parasite or disease, and at 3-4'' it might be hard for them to eat the guppies
