ORA Yellow Assessor is pale. Help!!

[HighOctane]

Ok so I got an ORA Yellow Assessor and it does not have its yellowish color to it. I picked it up from the LFS like that and he had a whole school of ORA Yellow Assessors pale in colors because they are not happy in these little tanks used in LFS.

He told me the colors should come back within a week or two. Has anybody else experience this?

Oh and I finally got me a ORA kamohara blenny from him too

I do know when fish are stressed they usually lose their color. But never heard for 1-2 weeks. Hopefully he turns around its a nice fish.

Yea the whole shoal was pale losing color and I asked him about it. He was saying they are just not happy in the little LFS tanks and should return to its original color once it is happy in my tank which should take between 1 to 2 weeks. The lfs is well known and very reputable.

What store? Any more kamohara blennies in stock?
