yep as scn said the colours are quite normal and appear on wild caught fish also, the colours can vary a lot from blue to green to even purple but a good quality healthy unstressed pleuro will look stunning no matter which colour


cheers col
 
KNow of any fish stores in Houston, TX area that sell exotic fresh water fish? I have tried Fish R Us but I was wondering if there was anything else out there?
 
thanks for the replies.

I guess i'm just more used to seeing them all green or blue. It just that lately, when guys started posting up more and more of these purplish colored and blotchy patterned ones that made me think that there was something special about them.

good to know that it's normal, because it's beauuutiful. thanks again!
