My meleagris leopard is changing

[small alien]

I noticed last night it's getting a bright red/pink area at the front of its dorsal fin. You can see a hint of it in this shot. It's more pronounced now, especially when it flares it's fins which it is doing much more of now as a male. It does some head down displaying in front of the female during dusk lighting. Neat!

It's body is almost fully changed over, but not quite. Still some black that hasn't gone red. What a treat to observe this first hand. It's my first changer other than my clowns and that wasn't really much to see. More like watching grass grow. This on the other hand is extra nifty.
