Gene variants of fish?

[Jush]

So we all know Platinum is white with Black eyes
Albino is White with Red eyes
Melanistic is Black with Black eyes
Xanthic is Red with Black eyes

so what is leucistic & what is Lutino?

Is leucistic another name for Platinum & Lutino a variant of Albino/ Platinum where its almost golden/ yellow with black eyes?

and where is Lutino? someone offered to sell me a lutino which was a very yellow silver arowana, almost albino but black eye, golden/ yellow body. Or could that just be leucistic but like the golden variant of it, almost like you get albino white & albino golden.
