Please see John's response on your RC thread. The coloration is very similar to Tetsuo's "hybrid Armitage" but the coloration should not come and go. If you have additional photos of the old and new coloration it would be most helpful. Unfortunately I cannot offer anything more than speculation. @Mike, Thanks for stopping by.

I believed it was a juvi due to its size, color, and missing the tan spots behind the head. Over the past 4 months all of the fishes black marks are slowly disappearing. I first noticed the black bar on his bottom fin shrink to a 1/3rd of its original size. Additionally, the black bars on the fishes eyes are practically gone. Besides the color change, the fish looks healthy. I posted my issues on reefcentral.com and someone guided me to your website. After reading the article, it is my belief that I might have an Armitage angel, what are your thoughts? The picture link below are to my picture gallery on reefcentral: The first pic was taken about a year ago www.reefcentral.com/gallery/data/500/87379flagfinandsingapore1-med.jpg The second pic was taken this week www.reefcentral.com/gallery/data/500/87379flagfin2.jpg Thank you for your time and any help you might be able to offer.
