Hello,
I am new to this hobby and recently got two anomalochromis thomasi (still very small, 3cm each). It is nice to watch them interact, but I witnessed something weird lately, they change the patern on their sides and fade from black to white in seconds, ofte when lookinhg at each other. Does anyone have any idea what this could mean?
Thank you,
 
i have a pair in a 500gal grow out pond when i take them out next week i bet they look great and fat, alot of cichlids change their coloration due to mood and or stress this is common aye no worries unless its the stress color change
