White cloud tetra that turned balck???

[TheCrazyFishLady]

One of my white cloud tetras has turned like a dark grey/black color where the silver should be. He still has the red tips and is just as active as he normally would be.
I noticed this earlier today when I was feeding the tank.
Any ideas on what is going on?

Is this right after you turn the lights on? Is this on the body or fins? I am not an expert on these fish, so I don't know where their colors are.

Sorry, I haven't be on.

Um, he is still dark... it's just all day long. He is supposed to be silver. But, I have no clue how this happened. The other one is still silver, but he is quite a bit smaller. I didn't think tetras could just change color.

Maybe it's some freak accident? I have no idea. He is still active and eating and happy though.

Well as long as he seems happy, I wouldn't worry. He might be a mix of some sort which makes him darker.
