Question Fox Face Color Variation

Need to bounce something off everyone....My foxface normally goes into various color modes when nervous, etc...however yesterday I noticed it has changed from it's normal bright yellow to his top half brown and bottom half yellow!?! Is this ok or could something be wrong with him?

yes foxfaces have some very off color variations, and they do get dark on the top and stay yellow on the bottom sometimes. The foxface i used to have would actually spell out "hoe" on his when he would get nervous and rear-up all his spikes.

Whew! Thanks! We just lost our Christmas Wrasse which was Nine Years Old due to the oh so wonderful Air Bladder Infection and I was worried! Thanks!
