Sexxy anemone shrimp going green ?

[tosiek]

Ok, i have two sexxy anemone shrimp in my tank, and noticed last night when the lights were out and this morning when i turned the lights on that their body and tail were getting green on the inside. Was really wierd. I turned on the lights last night b/c i couldn;'t believe it.

Anyone else noticed this and maybe know why? hoping its not because of a problem in my tank i am not seeing. They are back to normal now that the lights are on.

All my water params are normal, with PH beeing a little low at 7.9 or so

maybe eggs?

My cleaners have green eggs too.

wierd, they only showed last night when the lights were out. today they weren't as red, but not the green they were last night. And its both of them, i doubt both would be pregnant at the same time.

it's possibly eggs but most likely they ate something then pooped it out. Most shrimp are somewhat transparent especially when they are that small. You have witnessed the miracle of the bowel movement.
