The crawling back into my hole thing was a metaphor, I'm currently digging out a 17000 litre pond for koi:D

In case you think I was being lazy, yes I googled and the first link was by far the best;) I did look at about 20 odd sites after:)

:popcorn:for the pics;)

:ROFL: that's no metaphor if you are climbing into a big hole in the ground :headbang2 Can't wait to see this pond man, should be awesome!
 
I managed one decent shot, and one crappy one, the fish looks bright platinum silver, but the tank is dimly lit, and the flash makes the fish look darker than it is.

Notice how you can see the stripes of 'gouramy' species on the fish, even though it's albino :D

No, I did not photoshop the eyes! They don't look that bright on the fish normally, they're more of a salmon pink color. The flash really makes them glow though :) When you compare this fish to 'pink GG' the pinks have black eyes, are pink even at a small size, and typically have a yellow 'crown' on the ridge of the nose.

Here are the shots of the other one I had, that didn't last long in the community tank :(

Nice, I can see what your on about now, the eyes are a dead give away with the red pupil. Are you planning on keeping the lights turned down, as I'm guessing here that it would be more sensitive to light being an albino?
