Why is my clownfish glowing blue??

[SilvermistInc]

I've had these two for a year and I've JUST noticed the male is glowing blue!! What the heck??

Sometimes they can change colors/appear to be glowing it’s normal. https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/c...as-blue-on-white-strip-should-i-worry.711097/

Very cool if its not just lighting. Reef builders has an article about this. Not positive if thats what is happening here but still a cool read anyways.

Lights were off for the night and the bedroom has a 4 bulb T5 setup on the ceiling. But it's crazy that I'm only now seeing this now!

Oh, very nice! Looks like he's picked up a bit of a really gorgeous blue shade. That's really lucky.

I like the lil black molly in there next to the fancy fancy designer clowns.

Lol thanks. I can't have a Tang in the biocube so I opted for some mollies. All but this one died after a few months. No idea why though.

My guess would be that some disease or another got them. Freshwater fish lack any resistance to saltwater diseases, so a disease that's dormant in fish can easily kick up in a freshwater fish introduced to the tank.

It's entirely possible

Ocellaris clowns sometimes get hues of blue in their striping, entirely normal and looks cool
