Angelfish Changing Color
Angelfish has long been a favorite because of its beauty and fluid movements for aquarium dogs. And they can be quite the house pet you may be hoping for with the new variations constantly being attainable.

Do angelfish change color? Yes, they do, and it depends on their environment, surroundings, stress level, mood, and spawning season. It is normal to see them change colors throughout the day, so don’t worry.

You will read in this post about how the color of an angelfish varies and what causes it.

The Science behind Their Transformation
The ability of Angelfish to modify colors depends on melanosomes and melanin development. Melanosomes are responsible for melanin synthesis, and a material that absorbs light is melanin.

The angelfish’s ultimate colors are dominated by melanosomes, which monitor melanin’s motions and storage.

It means that the melanosomes have been distributed over to the melanophores as this particular stripe fades.

The thinner the bars get when it extends, it will quickly vanish.

The Cause of Color Change
There are various reasons why Angelfish changes their color. And these are:

Their Environment
The stripes seen in the angelfish have a reason not just for vanity. If there is an enemy close by, it allows them to camouflage.

With that said, if there are concerns, their skin colors can shift. They lie flat on the bottom occasionally, play dead, and change their color to pale.

Stress is not as good for them as it is for other fish. You could remember that they didn’t look the same when you purchased them, mainly when you bought your angelfish from a pet shop.

It can be jarring and upsetting for them to switch from one living environment to another, thus the color change.
