I was just wondering, about fishes eyesight in the dark.. are they all blind 8) when the lights go out? or are some better equipped than others...?

well the mexican blind cave fish dont have better eye sight but live their entire lives in the dark thus have no eyes and swim using the funny lines on their sides. they sence the world around them thru vidrations in the water

yes I think I saw just one of those in th LFS it ha no eyes at all and was albino like coloured - what an odd fish! and how weird that they would have one to sell, seems not right to take it out of its enviroment when its just a blind cave dwelliing fish.
