My marble's done changed!!

[nashnutny]

My lovely little black, blue and white marble has undergone quite a change in these past few weeks. Gone is the white.. there's very little left. Add some red on his upper back edging the black. There's silver on the gill covers now and a lot of blue that wasn't there before...

Sorry for the poor picture quality... here's what he was like when I first got him.

photos on the fly!!

Actually, it IS normal for marbles to gradually change their patterns.

He's gorgeous... in both pictures
Several of my fish have changed colours since last I photographed them. Kerubim from my profile pic has an almost completely red anal fin now, and Raziel has several streaks of red to go with the purple

Can all bettas change color (possibility to change) or just the marble ones?

Some Bettas who have the "red loss" gene will exhibit these changes.

my cocker spaniel changed colour, he was blue (meaning white with little speckes of black) as he grew up he got darker and darker till he was almost white.

then one magical day i had him clipped and he was his original colour underneath

don't supposed this helped much

he's sure one beautiful fish either way
