Hiya all
Got a Bicolor Blenny (Ecsenius bicolor) a few months ago.
It was the usual dark blue/black front half and dull orange back half.
When it went in the tank it set up home right near my pair of Clowns with eggs and got a good telling off, but for some reason the Blenny kept going back to the same spot :crazy1: , it has since moved away from the Clowns and has now settled in.
The thing is the Blenny has now changed colour to solid black and lost it's Bicolor it's named after.
At first I thought it was stress related, but it looks settled and stress free and has been this colour for a few weeks now.
Has anyone else had this happen to their Bicolor Blenny or know if this is a normal occurrence.

Cheers
Steve :)

It happened to mine but the orange came back. Didn't keep track of how long the blenny lost it's orange and got it back but don't stress out. As long as it's eating and not being harrassed then your good.
