Yeah that was a few days ago. I changed the rocks and got rid of it. It's currently sleeping in the corner again, I guess it has the most things to lean on so it's most comfortable.

We've seen this a few times, but not certain what it means. It's possible that it's experiencing growth that is too fast or there could be a water quality issue.

You don't think it could just be it's colour? It seems consistant. Has all the same greens, yellows and oranges.

It's not usual for RES. His current colors will go through pretty significant changes as he grows.
