Ok I know theres yellow and red tailed barracudas. i saw a barracuda at a LFS that was small only about 2-3" with no coloration at all. Is there another barracuda specie that has no coloration, or do they get there color when there larger?
 
Oh cool, I may take a chance an pick the lil guy this weekend.
 
I almost got a yellow tail awhile back but i think they were sick, since they were dead when I went in to buy them. Or the store that had them didnt know how to take care of them.
 
pretty sure its just juvinile colors or lack of them

Also i'm pretty sure theres more then 2 species of Barracuda
 
16 Really? thats insane, I only knew of two. ya im thinking its probally a red tail, those are more common than yellow tails. I think.
