Faded Fishes
It has been about 5months after shifting my fishes from the tiny blue tub to the white tub and the fish colours has been worst. Currently, fishes are on Saki Hikari colour, pH 7.1
Few months back
The goldfish colour was good back then;. But now faded Only this fish managed to maintain its colour
Current:
Any advice to increase the colour? Will increasing the pH help? |

assuming all other conditions did not change much, it would probably be because of your white tub. Change to blue or black one

Bro, not too sure why you call them goldfish in your first video. Those are fairy kois and the color may not be stable. There is one white and most likely the sibling of the gold one. These fairy kois genes are not stable at young age and can totally fade off as they grow or if pH and water conditions not the same as where they came from.
I don't think the white background can turn a goldfish to white. |

You need to put them under the sun. The koi at terminal color also faded cause no exposure to the sun
