My local LFS sells this white/pink fish with totally blacked out eyes. They say it's a blind cave tetra, but it does not have the same body style or eye style as A. mexicanus. It resembles more of a white skirt tetra, except its fins are much longer, it is slower moving and its eyes are completely jet black. Any ideas?
I want to know what kind it is because I am working on a low-light cave setup. I thought I could have a school of these and a red lobster (small crayfish).
 
It would be great if you could get a photo... otherwise we are just throwing out guesses. :)
 
I didn't have time to go there today...I will try to get a picture of one tomorrow. Any guesses for the time being?
 
Sorry, I really don't have any guesses even. This isn't one of my strong points. :(
 
Dang it's okay. I didn't get the chance to look today either!
