Default Pigment change

My 4 yr old plecos are loosing their pigment - includes body and fins. The color change in the fins is confined to the forward edge. Is this normal aging or a disease?

Default Re: Pigment change

Can you post a pic of him? Sounds like stress. What size tank is he in? What other fish is with him? What are your readings for ammonia, nitrites and nitrates? What is your water change schedule?
