GBTA not so green anymore

Hello all,
I looked around to the posts but havent seen anyone say anything about the green bubble tip losing his color. I have had one for about a month, not a small one either and he seems more tan or brown than green in regular lighting. His green shows up a little under the blue actinic. He doesnt seem to be hurting at all. Any thoughts?
 
Most species of BTA have varying colors. Depending on where it came from, Whether is was aquacultured and how much light it is in. They type of food also makes the difference along with types of lights (T5, Power compact, MH)
 
I did just start feeding him frozen silverback fish. A friend of mine feeds his rose colored nem. As soon as I did that, he seemed to start coming out more. He would actually hide away during peak hours. Now he's moving around the tank which he didn't do before so maybe a little food and a change of scenery is what he's looking for
