There has been a huge difference in the color of my oranda in the last 13 months.

Here she is April 2015...

Is this much change typical? I know that their colors will change, but it seems like she's getting whiter by the day.

I'm having trouble zooming in on photos but looks healthy. Anything in the tank that may cause stress issues?
 
No stress I can think of. Water is:

Ph. 7.2
Ammonia. 0
Nitrite 0
Nitrate. 10

She's in a 65 gallon with 2 other golds. She did scrape her head a couple of weeks ago. I think she was going for food between some rocks. I've been treating with water changes and Stress Coat (and made more space between the rocks). But she's eating well and doesn't seem to be sick. Just losing color. It really seems like there are less and less each day.
