Color difference in granulosas

Last year I caught a beautiful female orange & brown granulosa. This year, at a different pond a few miles away, I caught (actually he swam right up to me) a male granulosa, but his colors are somewhat different: his orange is more like pale yellow, and his brown is more like greenish-brown. You guys ever heard of that before? I've checked out the anatomical stuff and I'm pretty sure both are granulosas. Why the difference in color?
 
Differences in diet, water quality, habitat, etc. You'll never find two animals (of any species) that are exactly the same.

    Dear All, I would appreciate some help identifying P. waltl disease and treatment. We received newts from Europe early November and a few maybe 3/70 had what it looked like lesions under the legs- at that time we thought maybe it was the stress of travel- now we think they probably had "red leg syndrome" (see picture). However a few weeks later other newts started to develop skin lesions (picture enclosed). The sender recommended to use sulfamerazine and we have treated them 2x and we are not sure they are all recovering. Does anyone have any experience with P. waltl diseases and could give some input on this? Any input would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.
