My black ice's last white stripe (nearest tail) is turning grayish/black color. The other clown in the tank has kept his coloration. Has anyone else seen this before? Lights went off for the night but I'll try to get pics tomorrow. Behavior seems normal and eating just as well when I got her/it 6 months ago.

Did the clown recently start hosting a new anemone? Clownfish will change colors depending on the anemone they are hosting. My percula lost all it's black coloration once it started hosting my BTA.

It is normal black ice get significantly darker as they get older. IMO it looks awesome.
