owkay, so it's bout my bichirs again. ..

about a month ago i moved my bichirs to a stable 50galls (i know it's very small fr 10 bichirs, but me mom got mad when i ordered a 236 galls tank, so i canceled it fr a moment .T _ T.), with a gravel as it's mediator, since i'm putting a lot of plants in. after a week or so, all of my senegals changed colours, to a very dark kind f senegals. before i decorated my tank (plain glass tank) they're very bright coloured (pale yellowish) and now most of the body is very dark, with some bright scales still unchanged.
my albinos, is the other hand, r still d same, i think it's because they're poor in pigments. i've just bought a couple of platinum senegals, and was thinking, they're just a great light grey, will they become darker too ??? and is it right if the darker the surrounding area the darker fish will become ???
