 Percula loses color when light is off Right now I have a compact flourescent 65watt 10,000K light. I do not currently have a timer, so I try to leave the light off for at least 8 hrs a day (usually while I sleep) Whenever I turn the light back on, however, my Percula looks almost transparent. After about 10 minutes of the light being on, however, her color comes back. Any ideas?  |

| Re: Percula loses color when light is off This is completely normal, most all reef fish do this.

| Re: Percula loses color when light is off Yep, normal. My fish do the same thing, and I have clowns just like you, no worries  |
