I got this nem just over a month ago .
The testicles have gotten much darker.
My daughter said it looks dirty . Not clean white like when I got it ..
She asked me if that was ok ?
I didn't know how to answer her [emoji20]
It puffs up nicely during the day.
Eats frozen brine shrimp .. I broadcast over him about every other day ..
Just wasn't sure what to tell her ..
Good, bad, or indifferent .??

I'm no expert, but generally anemones get less transparent as the density of zooxanthelea increases. Its a good thing.
 
I hate when my anemones testicles get darker!! ;):p all kidding aside it is probably good, when they are pale and washed out, they aren't healthy.
 
Thanks guys...
Look generally healthy just wasn't sure how to answer her .
