Hey guys when I first got my discus I fed them quite a bit of color bits and a lot of omega one color flakes. Didn't realize it, but over time I've turned my yellow discus orange, and my red melon is more orange. Both have a dull face now instead of the nice white faces they originally had.

So since about June now I've stopped and am feeding all of the following:
California blackworms with pro more
California blackworms sticks with pro grow
Hikari freeze dried blood worms
Ken's beef heart flakes
Ken's earthworm flakes
Ken's blackworm flakes
Ken's grow pellets

Anything else I should do to get them back to their nice colors? Thanks!

I made the same mistake with an albino white discus and a couple others. My yellows were orange / dark red and now my albino white has an ugly reddish tone to it. I have stopped for about 2 months now and most of the color is gone but not all the way.
