So I came home last night and I was in a hurry and checked my tank and saw that my yellow watchman goby was white like pure white so I came to the conclusion of he must have died bad water or something but I was already late for work so I couldn't take him out so I left him. Well I came back the next day (didn't get home till 2 and had to work at 8 didn't worry about the tank) and I looked at his "corpse" was gone then I looked and I saw a little yellow head and there he was breathing and everything again is this normal
 
They can change color, they're a strange fish!
 
My lawnmower Blenny changes shades of brown depending on his surface. He can blend into the white and and the brown rock. Sometimes, our fish play opossum and Chameleon I guess
