My clownfish is turning darker in color on the top half of her body. Any ideas? Had her for four years. The only thing that's changed is that she's recently chosen my toadstool mushroom to host. I've heard of corals "stinging" fish but I wasn't sure if this was really the cause.

    looks like a common coloring morph to me. If the toad stool was sting it it wouldnt host it

    My clown sometimes does the same with my toadstool, but my clown has never shown any color change. I dont think yours is being stung by your toadstool, the color change must be something else.

    It can be a chemical reaction to the toadstool leather... Or perhaps you are feeding a better quality food to your fish?

    All the Percs I see come in have coloration like this. I think it might just be "maturing."

    I have a pair and one of them shows the same coloring. Mine are only about 3 months in the tank.
