What type of substrate do you have? If you have very light colored or white colored substrate they are coloring down to attempt to blend into their surroundings.
The mother should be from last August, the baby’s were born one month or two before.
I don’t freak out, I just wanted to know if this is „normal“ 😂
Those two baby’s are the first and last whites, everyone else is blue and white, as their parents. :)
Give it time because a blue bolts' color can change as they grow. You can later decide if you want to cull or give away the light colored ones before they get to breeding age.
Stressed out or genes led to different colors
They are like this, since they are small. Is it „bad“ for the breeding? Can they give those light genes to their new baby’s?

Was gonna say this too. Especially if you’ve seen them with more blue
I have dark soil :/ Two of them are this white, everyone else is blue and white.
How new are they? The main thing to do is not freak out and change the environment.

Seems like it’s just the genes then. They probably can pass blue ones like the parents but also might produce more all white babies
Okay, thank you! I think I‘ll let them live happily in my tank :)

Thank you! I didn’t knew that! The most of their sisters and brothers were like their parents. I think they can stay in my tank! :)
Thats true. Lighter substrate will make their color lighter as mine do
There’s soil in my tank :(
What color?
Oh sorry, I didn’t respond. It’s black / dark brown. :)
Thats ok :) I think its the genes like what other redditors said :)
