good water perimeters and feed alot of vegetation like red bamboo, nori, grape algae etc.

colour loss can be either stress, nutrition deficiency, poor water quality (stray electricity, high NO3, low salinity) etc.

MOST COMMONLY lack of nutrition and poor water quality.

fix this two and ur tangs should colour up.

have chiller?

normally fish got more intense color when temp is lower in the range.

If a man could beat his own fantasy. Then to only breed in captivity. Then its pointless.

Genesis 1:20

And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that has life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven. And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth. And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.

do away the brine shrimp, they are empty shells food.

go for Danichi's pellet food. have got 2 kind, one for vege eater and the other is normal. Reef depot carries it.

or go for Faunamarin's color based food pellet.

invest in a chiller, i never look back.

i go for both. Reef depot carries Danichi.

Whereas iwarna got the faunamarin. iwarna might have danichi but i can be wrong. call them to check.

perhaps people dun really look in to researching. brine shrimp are like snacks for most of us. i still use brine shrimp as well, but only use it to get some fish to start eating.

for some reason, brine shrimp gets a fish to start eating sooner compared to mysis in my experience.

still, if you want nice color on fish, get a chiller and proper lightings. lighting do play a part as well, needs to experience it.

all the best.
