for some reason my mummy eye which has been a perfect green the last few months has gotten a kot lighter over the last few days. I adjusted my light to make a slower climb to the stronger mid day light by 2% on radions. None of my params have swung or changed. Still looks the same size and healthy other than the color which is showing more neons now like pink but lighter than normal. Has anyone else experienced this?
 
If it's under different lighting than it was grown as a colony under, then color changes aren't really that uncommon. I recently bought a rainbow chalice from a frag swap. It got really dark under intense lighting...it has only recently begun to obtain it's rainbow-peachy coloring back. Do you happen to have before and after photos? It would be helpful to have at least one or two good pictures to see if it's really just a change in lighting.
 
My mummy has it's best color in low light about 125 par. It probably needs more time or move it lower.

Same here. Higher light it got lighter in color as well with most other chalices I have kept.
But we really have no idea what light his is under.
