Recommended Posts

Hi all,

Realised the colour of my open brian are fading. When i just bought them, the center is bright green, but now, the center green colour is almost gone, looks like normal skin colour now. It has been 2 wks since i bought the brian.

Issit due to the difference in lightings? The shop i bought from uses T5 lights, I'm currently using 150W MH lights.

Other than the colour fading, the brian looks fine. Has been feeding well.

Water parameters wise are ok, just measured again yest.

KH4 - 0

NO2 - 0

NO3 - 10ppm

Ca - 440

Any advise on what I should do? Will the colour of the brian "brightens" up again once they're used to MH lights?

Appreciate if anyone can offer me advise on this. Thanks!

The colour is slowly coming back. Now the center has grown back a slight greenish tint. The brian on the sand bed has recovered it's colour nicely, only the one on the LR is still slowly recovering.

Thanks to all the advise, the brains are looking good now. Very fleshy now compared to a month ago, guess when i bought them they're not very healthy, trying to nurse them back to health now. :D
