Pink chalice turning green

[da6d2003]

Any idea why would a pink chalice start turning green.

This is an old pic, but it shows green starting around the edges here.

I've had it for about a 1.5 years. Yes, I have moved it some.

Why?

Did ya move it to a less lit area?

I would guess that its getting more lioght if it is turning green. I had a watermelon echino turn green when I put it out in the open under a 400W 20K XM, hasnt turned back in 6 months, still green with yellow eyes.

It's actually getting less light now. Strange?

It's now at the bottom of the tank. Lighting is 250w DE phoenix bulb.

Try getting it more light.IMO

When did it start turning green? Was there a stressor around that time (or an other change)?

 

[da6d2003]

A stressor like my queen B.... maroon clown? Yes, she was always trying to knock it over which is why I moved it to the other side of the tank.

Amzing how those words go together- B#%$^ maroon clown. Mine has her interior decorator degree from some oceanic school none of my other fish have veer heard of and shoves it in my face every day... Does she cover it in sand, or just throw it around the tank?
