    A tangs color changes with stress/emotions/defensive. My purple tang at night is a lavender color with a deep purple streak across it! My naso will randomly go from grey body coloring to black for no reason.... I wouldnt worry to much unless the poop looks unnatural for a fish. Then I would look into internal parasites. Other then that I wouldnt worry to much :)...

    They are quite the amusing fish.
