I have a Gold Striped Maroon that I got a couple weeks shy of two years ago. I believe wild caught. It was a fairly large juvenile at the time. She has grown quite a bit and turned dark maroon but the stripes only slightly show yellow. Still mostly white.

75g and has several RBTA which host it. I feed frozen food (Larry's, black worms, clams) nearly daily.

What is the progression and timeline of the stripes turning gold? From what I've read it should have happened by now?
 
Mine took about 6 months to get her yellow strips.
