1 branch on Hammer turned white? Others still pink

Cgreene · 04/15/2011, 10:42 PM

This happened about a month ago, but one day I noticed 1 full branch on my pink hammer had turned white. I took a pic and decided to wait it out. After about a week, the branch turned back to its normal pink like the other branches. Havn't been on RC in awhile but thought I would post the pic up and see if anyone has opinions on the reasoning.

I wouldn't worry too much about it. I have a frogspawn that has been gradually turning purple tipped from green. At this point about 3 of the 20 heads are now purple with some 1/2 and 1/2.

Yeah I'm not worried. Was wondering if anyone knew a reasoning to why it happens.

I had frogspawn that had 2 heads that were white , then my tank went down hill and I thought the white ones were dead. They recovered and they came back green and purple!
