Exclamation Gonatodes humeralis colours

Hi all, i've managed to obtain a pair of Gonatodes humeralis and have a question about their colouration. When they were in the tank of the seller, they were coloured plain brown, but as soon as they were caught the male especially got his bright colours. Now, in my viv they have turned brown again.

Does anyone know if this is 'normal' or is it a matter of aclimization? Or perhaps there is another reason?

Hi,

It will be dark for awhile until it has settled in okay. Just give it some time alone to get used to things and it should come around.
