The biggest of my reds lost all of his red color. He has gotten a little greyer then normal, but absolutely NO red on his belly, except for his bottom fin.
The other three reds are absolutely fine and showing great color but the oldest one has lost all of his color! :confused::cry::nilly:

I will try and post some pictures up, its very hard to get him to stay still.

Whatever it is, its looks terrible. Does anybody know why hes lost his color?!?!
 
ill try to get more pictures up when its brighter out, but im really worried. ive been doing 40% everyday for the past 4 days now.
I dont know what else to do??

stress, water condition.... mine do that every once and a while
 
A lot of reds start to turn to "grays (lol)" when they get older too. Just do some water changes and see if he gets better throughout the week.
 
"Grays****" lol I'm in a bit of a panic and I misspell words. He's only about a year and a half old so I'm not sure if hes suppose to be "graying" this early..
Should I add any salt or anything?
