Electric Pink Jack Dempsey

[greg c]

I wonder if the store had some golds and platinums. The platinums (I've heard them called electric pink) have more blue.

Here are some comparisons: The first pic is of a Platinum.

The second pic has an EB and a Gold (I've heard Gold referred to as Pink).

Your Platinum has some really nice spangling!

The store had pinks, electric blues and electric pinks so the electric pinks they were selling could very well be platinums.

Is this fish a leucistic jack dempsey.
I have seen them referred to as gold or platinum also.

I looked at the pics, it doesn't look like one to me.

That is what I'd call a Gold. Leucistic would fit the bill as well.

Nice morph...almost looks like a reef fish. Wonder if they are as sturdy and large as the regular Jacks?
