this is how he looks now
Was he white or colourless (which is not quite the same as white). Anyway the process is called marbling (google it for a full description). This has nothing to do with ammonia or other issues associated with water quality.

Basically you purchased a young fish before the colours were fully formed and now it is happy and forming its full colouring.
