Mmm, would you mind if I tried with this lot (CO2 was posted today), and if it doesn't work, I come begging for more? Happy to pay of course.

Of course, if someone else wants this lot, they're welcome......

one of my fav's, iv'e never seen it go dark ? had it for about 5-6 mths i think.
but my turk goes dark a fair bit, cause of breeding...

From what I've read, pigeons can develop black spots, or "peppering" depending on stress, the environment - including how dark it is, and genetics. This is usually permenant & is a fault.

Turks/ everything but pigeons and diamonds can get dark bars through genetics, which stay and can fade as the fish matures, or stress, which come & go.

All discus but albinos can become dark in the body as a whole when severely stressed, breeding or sick. This is not permenant. Unless it dies of course.

Diamonds (blue, red gold) do not get peppering or bars.

HTH

Please correct me if I'm wrong guys. I could do with the information as much as axl.
