Aussie Gold Torch Color Change?

[ADAM]

Im wondering what would cause a color change in an Aussie Gold Torch. The two AG torches in my tank have slowly changed from a complete golden yellow tentacle, like you’d imagine picturing in your head, to a more brown and gold striped tentacle. Also another gold striped torch has lost some of its gold coloration throughout the tentacles. All have continued growing the last few months but the gold has faded a bit. Is there a trace element I’m lacking? Or would it be more of light intensity/ spectrum issue

I've been told they need lots of light to get better gold. Can you move them up?

That's interesting. Per the previous comment, how much light does it get? I just got one two weeks ago, and I don't want this happening haha

I left mine in lower light when I first got it and it started loosing color. I moved it to a new location 3 months ago. It now gets 280 - 300 Par and also higher flow. It is bright gold now, looks even better than when I got it.

Thinking it may well be lighting change from their previous location where they remained much more golden, however lower they are more inflated and “prettier” to watch flow. Will probably try moving one up or over for more direct light to see the difference, if any.
