Does anyone know why berghia turn blue? Can’t find any info on the web for it and am curious to know.

I know they white wend hungry and develop brown wend well fed. Just wondering what the blue means.

ultimately, i think it’s just down to variation in the species after consuming the aiptasia body, zooxanthellae & nematocysts.
