Hey all! I’ve had this lobo for just over a year now. It was solid orange for most of the time I’ve had it but lately and increasingly the past month or two it’s getting some blue/purple/green splotches and fringe(green around the bottom rim under the main flesh).

None of my parameters have swung they are very consistent. I have been starting a weekly/bi-weekly All-For-Reef dose as I’m only doing exchanges every 6-8wks or so and this helps keep my trace elements up for my coral.

Just wondering if this is something anyone else has seen or a red flag indicator of some kind.

Cheers!

Looks normal to me. I have a lobo of similar colour and I've found its colour has slightly changed over time (I think it looks nicer!). Its normal for their colours to change depending on the conditions in their environment. Looks healthy and happy to me!
