redtail rasbora's tail isn't red

[fishdogs]

Hi,

I have 5 redtail rasboras. When I first got them their tails were red, except for 1. In the 3 weeks that I have had them their tail color has faded drastically and the one that did'nt have a red tail has become sluggish and sometimes hides. I have tested my water and everything checks out. Does anyone have any experience with these little beauties?

Is this Rasbora boraptensis?

Yes

Mine still have their red. They thrive in my pond. Try foods containing color enhancers or beta carotene.
