how long have you had them and what are the water parameters. Colors can fade under lighting that is more intense than what they had earlier. Maybe move them down a little in the tank. but we need to know more.

Also need to know water parameters. Eagle eyes, as well as most zoas, are pretty hardy. Can you give more info on your tank.

water change, then check your levels, and dose accordingly

Ok, I have a 29g biocube 144w upgrade, parrameters are nitri-0, nitra-0, Cal-420, salt 7.3, all is good. I have them now in the middle of the tank. all my other zoo's are doing great. You think they might be getting too much light? Lights are on 7 hrs. Will they do better on the bottom? I feed phyto about three times a week. Temp is at 75-78 all day. The 29g is all Moded up refuge inside the 2nd chamber with an upgraded pump. Also a hang on skimmer on the back. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks

Salt 7.3? What does that mean? Post your salinity, pH and alk. Mag too if you have a mag test kit.

I have no idea why they would be fading. can you post some pics of the eagle eyes?

This is a bad picture, because the blenny is on top of the eagle eyes, but do the colors look similar? (not the big green ones, the ones to the left of blenny, you can see one that is partially open) sorry for the poor quality, but he was happy where he was.
