I have four orino peacock one I got from a different vendor. Had them for two months now. I’m feeding all the same thing but one, the one I bought from different vendor, isn’t really showing signs of coloring. Is that normal? I do water change once or twice a week
 
Water quality good? Maybe just stressed from the other pbass/fish.

Yea everything at zero. I bought a 8” and 2” from the same guy. The 3 ich is almost 5” ichs now and they are still red/ brown color. The 5” are in a 55 gallon with two other Kelberi and Payara. Kelberi seems to changing fine.
 
These are the ones in my 55 gallon. The one circled is from the same vendor as the one in the larger tank that is a reddish/brown color
 
Different strains more than likely. I think it looks normal. They won’t pop until sexual maturity
