oo i love the purple acei, cant seem to find much information on them, there cichlids right? i dont know much about them but there usually mostly species only tanks right? I was mostly asking out of random curiosity, but the purple acei is definitely added to my someday wish list, but ive seen the glofish around.

There are some fancy goldfish that are considered 'purple' but they are very rare & very expensive.

Lets see if this link works.... if it doesnt, go to The Goldfish Connections site & check out their auction showroom. Fish #14 is a lavender ranchu. You can also check out their 'gallery' & theres probably a few other purple & lavender fish pics in there as well.

Wow. That fish is quite interesting looking! And only $350! I had no idea goldfish could be that color!

Looks like it had an allergic reaction to a bunch of bee stings.

Some kribs that r in spawning mode have a purplish lavender hue on their sides and abdomen.
Also my one male fulleborni is dark purple.

yeah! lol i never liked those types of goldfish, or the ones with big balloon thingys, kinda freak me out a bit. Had no idea goldfish could go that color, ive only ever seen orange, yellow, white or black

Purple painted fish... Purple dyed fish.... Purple tattooed fish, they are some times hard to find, and are usually unhealthy

 

[angel4335]

definitely dont want any dyed or tattooed fish

i was looking on liveaquaria for ideas on what FallenRedeemer's fish might be.. and i stumbled upon this..

Tropical Fish for Freshwater Aquariums: Acei Cichlid Malawian African Cichlids

oh so very tempting!!! If only shipping wasnt soo much! and they have a min order of atleast $30 so the very least they would cost $60 doh! just cant bring myself to spend that much on fish, especially fish i cant actually see and pick out myself lol. I wonder if they ever have free shipping sales?
