Angel Phase Changing

[bsharding1982]

Does anyone have pictures of what their Koran or Emporer Angel looked like as they transitioned into their adult colors?

My Koran's color has faded a little bit in the face and was wondering if this was the beginning of the change. He's about 4.5-5".

there is a thread right now in the aggressive forum of someone documenting the change in thier emperor angel. you should go check it out.

be careful you do not mistake fading in the face for HLLE, a disease that disfigures plenty of emperors and korans.

I only have a couple of bad pictures from back when I had my Koran --- about 4 years ago. I want to say that it was around 6" or so when I sold it.

In the face it sorta looks like Todd's in the first picture how it is starting to yellow. You can also see some of the yellowing in the body like that too. I tried taking some pictures of him but he is a quick bugger and hard to photo. I'll try again tonight.

Thanks for the input guys. I'll def have to keep an eye on it. I have seen HLLE before, mostly on oscars at different displays so hopefully it isn't that, thats nasty stuff.
