Hmm.. that sounds wierd to me..

The only time mine lose color is when they are stressed and they havent stopped moving. You may have the 4 line pictus that is commonly sold as a pictus. Theyre color faded when they get older and they sit still too..

Got any pics?

Nice, can only imagine the chaos that will be your 30g tank. I have a single(4 line) that is 6" in a 55g. He is the terror of the tank and leaves all other fish unsettled.
