Moore changing color

Question
Okay, now i have a questions regarding my Moor.  I've had my aquarium for about 2 1/2 years.  Two goldfish, 1 Moor & 1 Redcap oranda.  The Moor is changing color from all black to gold!  He is now about 75% gold.  Curious!  Could it be that he is taking on the colors of his goldfish friends?  Thanks again.

Answer
Hi Echo;

Black Moors, like most other goldfish, do tend to change color as they age. Don't worry, it's perfectly normal.
