more than likly she will not turn all black....sorry to tell u that.... But she does have beautiful color. It looks like there may be some small black dots in the pigment of the clown on the left..... That looks like to me stings from hosting that zoo rock in the background.... do they lay around in it? Most of the color is passed down from the father of that clown....and a good diet and stable condition helps display the color to its full potential.

Kinda was thinking it was the zoos. I just didnt expect so much black pigment from being stung. THNX

Most if not all her black is her coloration. The black spots (size of the scale some with missing scales are the result of the sting of the polyp colonies. I would recommend that you get these colonies out or else provide better host for you clowns. They can get stung badly. While it will not kill them, but will scar them.
