I bought 4 heads of rainbow acan last year. I paid a lot for it, lol.

After I bought it, it turned red and blue which I have heard before. Well, I have 2 new heads growing that appear to be rainbow like when I bought it. Is this normal?

Is there anything I should do?

The new rainbow acan heads that come out will sometimes have a different color when small. Typically yellow or green. As that particular head gets bigger it will turn the same color as the other ones. I see the same in my rainbow acans if you look at the picture I posted the head at the very bottoms center is green and different than the other bigger ones. But I've seen all of the heads go through the same color change

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!
