Green is the color of algae........ some algae are green, Red, Brown, or Golden Brown
brown, green, red, and blueish-green.
Algae is grown by ammonia in the water that is turned into nitrite/nitrate is food for algae to grow. It also needs a little light. To get rid of it you can put fast growing live plants in your aquarium to reduce the nitrite/nitrate in the water that algae feeds on. See Related links below
Unlike brown and green algae, red algae can assume a great variety of colors. Xanthophylls like lutein yield yellow to orange hues. More typically, however, red algae appear red, violet or bluish due to the presence of accessory pigments like phycoerythrin and phycocyanin. Green prevails when the above colorations are lacking. Overlaping colors or high concentrations of pigments can cause rhodophytes to look brown or blackish. Coralline rhodophytes often appear chalk white.
Some of the types of algae are staghorn algae, black brush or beard algae, green spot algae, and green thread hair algae. Other types of algae are green water algae, and black green algae.

Yes it is, though some species of algae can even be red, brown, yellow, or other colors.
brown, green, red, and blueish-green.
The red, brown, yellow and green colors of algae help them blend in with the colors of the ocean floor,so they won't be found or eaten by their predators. Algae have special cells which make these colors appear so they can better use the light energy available to them while under water for photosynthesis. Another view: It is likely that the different pigments in algae allow them to compete for different wavelengths of light, either when crowded or when in different environments. Some algae have developed holdfasts to anchor them in place.
I guess you are asking about "Algae eating fish" If so, then there are so many different species of fish that eat algae that it is impossible to advise you on their colouring. You will need to be more specific.
Green
bright or dull colors....colors may vary form gray to bright yellow
Well, their color is the result of their diet. It's all about the algae! But, they usually stick to one type of algae so they very rarely change colors, but it'd be because they eat two different types of algae. Let's say it's eating green algae, and after a while it goes on to pink(ish). It would have green feathers that change to that color. I hope that answered your question. :)
they don't turn green cause of the amount of algae they eat.they eat more shrimp than algae.
