Hi boojncarla, Welcome to Reefland!
A loss of coloration usually means that the diet you are feeding is not providing everything that is needed. What kind of diet you need to feed is dependant on the fish you have but mostly, a mixed diet of flake, algae and some mysis and brine shrimp is a good start. Scott Z. |

thanks for the reply reefland but the thing here is that they dont want to eat the flakes because they only eat sinking pellets. how do i get hold of algae?

I found dried Nori at an Asian food store, very cheap, like 2-3 dollars for 5-6 SHEETS that are about 6x8 inches.
