pouch discoloration?

Hi there,
I've noticed a small bit of pouch discoloration on two of my male tiger tails. I do not believe they are old enough to be preggers.
This picture is not terribly good. The color on his pouch is a bit pinker-reddish.
I apologize that I don't have my tank parameters. I've been working quite a bit.
They are eating fine and otherwise acting normally.
thanx so much!

If he has a pouch, he could be pregnant. I can't say for sure if the discoloration you're seeing is normal or not. I don't see it. He does look possibly bloated, but he could be well feed. Can you get a better camera? Maybe video?
