Default Picasso Trigger Color question

I've asked this question a few times, but have yet to receive a satisfactory answer

I have seen some Picasso's with amazing colors, but some have very light colors. Why? Is its s-e-x, size, stress, diet, lighting in the tank, specimen, or other?

My Picasso has good colors when I first turn on the lights of the tank, but then its color fades (see pic below). He is about 1.5-2.0" and eats very well.

Here is a link to some Picasso's with amazing colors. I want mine to look like these!

Usually diet and lighting...better diet, better colors.
