Default Platy Color

I recently bought 3 platys (2 female and a male) and over the last week I have noticed a very significant color change. I know that healthy fish are generally brighter, but there are completely new markings! Is this normal?

Depends on how old you got your fish. Fish change colors as the grow older or settle in their morph.

The fish I most recommend is Heterandria Formosa the least killiefish, smallest livebearer in the United states. Picture is larger than life size. Males reach a lengh of 1/4 of an inch and females up to 1 inch.
