    I'm certainly not an expert on the subject, but I though this usually this dosn't happen from hosting in a nem? Of course, an LTA isn't a natural host for them, so, maybe they are not adapted to handle the particular nemocytes. If it is though, it isn't supposed to be an issue other than looks. BTW, I have noticed this in my ocs hosting in a frogspawn, but not to the degree they seem to be turning black. Maybe a combination of things happening. They can continue to turn darker for several months.
