If this is the electric blue in the 18g tank where all the fish are gulping air (your other thread)..maybe this has something to do with it? I don't know much about them...just a thought. Good luck.

cichlid_man the rules of the forum as anywhere are there for a reason.
They're there to keep the forum running smoothly, uncluttered with nonsense and keeping it family friendly.
Being 8 years old is not an excuse for not following rules.

Or if its like this one:
Sciaenochromis fryeri

If we know what "electric blue" it is then we can tell you why the color is off, if it is at all.
