Pink Duncan?

[Rubicon06]

Hi,

This was sold to me as a Duncan, it seems physically the same, but it's not green, not really at all...

Here's a pic;

So has anyone else seen a Duncan that wasn't green? Or is this even a Duncan?

Thanks!

Its a duncan no doubt about it. The less green they contain the less desirable they are (usually).

I don't know too much about how the colors can change due to light levels or stress, but I think you may find that it will develop more green over time if you keep it happy. Idk

They like high light and will become more green after awhile.

Mine was very light pink, but once I got home it greened right up. That probably doesn't help any.

hmm...agree with better lighting...looks a bit malnurished

I have fed it once with Cyclop-eeze (I've only had it 3 days) is that what I should feed it or try something else?

Also it's under 36w of PC, but it's only in a 5.5g.

Any other suggestions?

Try meatier foods, mysis/krill.

I'll try mysis soon

I soak frozen mysis/bloodworms in Selcon, since they are a FW animal & don't have the amino acids/nutrition SW foods have.
