How do you maintain an ornate bichir's bright coloring as they grow? I just picked up two baby ornates today, and their colors really pop out. I don't want them to fade as they grow. Is there a food I can give them to keep their colors? I've tried including krill in their diet the past when I've grown ornate bichirs out, but their colors always faded with age.

It can’t be helped
Based on what I have experienced all the new patterns of ornate will be gone when they grow
