    Bill, that happens with a lot of ghost-based discus. Years ago when calicos first came onto the scene (they were called Nebula back then) they would come in white with orange and red caps, but the white would eventually fade to a dark grey/purple. If you look up pictures of ghost discus you'll see this is fairly common. Otherwise they look nice! I've always had a soft spot for the ghost/golden cap/calico/koi varieties.
