I have paradise fish that was all grey with some off set color. It usually gains or looses color every other week or so. However, for the past 2 weeks he has been all normal (little color) on his front side and colored alot on his tail half. Any Ideas what is going on and how I can make him all colored.

I'll get some pictures up this weekend.

I feed Brine Shrimp and Flakes. The temperature is at 76°F. The pH is at 7.4.

Nice picture but this is just the oddest thing. Looks like you hung onto his tail and dipped him in bleach.

I use color enhanced food but that sparks up dull color. Nothing like this.

does he look bent, my male blue gourami got "bent" when the net accidently corked him on the side of the tanka dn his lower half went a dark colour for a while

I lost a dwarf gourami last night. I noticed some fin rot on him yesterday that had only just started on him so I put him in the hospital tank and treated him with Melafix. Didn't work. I have lost more dwarf gourmai's than anything else. Infact, have lost no other varities.

I am posting in regards to that half colored paradise fish you have. What has happened to it and is it OK still? I know you posted the picture a month ago but was so interested in what caused this odd color loss.
