Loach is turning grey or white

[FishJennifer]

So I have a load one of the ones that look like an eel I can't pronounce how they say their name it starts with a K and anyways I noticed they hadn't seen him for a while and then when I went to do my water change he came out from underneath one of my rocks and he was like a gray color or turning a gray color do you know if that's normal or is he not well

Welcome to the forum . I think you mean Kuhle loach. Is there any chance you could send a picture of the loach, so we can try to identify it a bit better?

Need some more information please. Tanks size, photo of fish, water temp, substrate, water parameters (ammonia, nitrite, nitrate)

I am assuming you mean a kuhli loach? They can and often do become pale when stressed, frightened or when they are just waking up. Kuhlis are generally secretive little fish unless they have a nice dark tank and lots of friends, then they will be out and about during the day. If you scared yours out of hiding I wouldn't be too surprised to see it go pale. Try keeping an eye on it, make sure it is eating and looking healthy and it is always a good idea to do some researching on each specie's care requirements.
