As I know cloud mountain minnows are available in two color variants. Which will be best choice?
The regular one, not albino

'Stunning pink seam'?????

I have kept this fish as a school kid. Have see it sold right left and center for ages. Never ever seen any colour but black or silver (or the albino absence of coloration which is the colour of flesh)... Where have u seen this stunning pink seam fish?

The group that were with me had this blakish pink/red coloration.
