I don't recall ever seeing a white one at any Lfs around here; how big is he/she??

 

[cheesy feet]

Around 8"
Tis' a he, and has his own partner, but sadly the eggs are always infertile.

Is he crossed with a goldfish

nice fancy tropical goldfish

oooops sorry not allowed to say nothing bad about man made fish in the hybrid section

 

[Zawiha]

though yes, BP's do look similar to goldfish. They are indeed not alike.
Some Bp's can be hyper-aggresive. My old 10inch Bp would murder most things in with him. Not to mention draw blood from your hand.

I assume this is more the Midas range of BP.
Very nice at any rate.

Send him my way, he is gorgeous!! BTW can I see his wife?

I used to have two females, they were orginally green and they faded to yellow, sadly when we moved we couldn't set up the tank straight away so they went to the LFS and got snapped up as soon as I walked through the door, lol!!
My friend has some and they are various shades of red and pink!

You should really avoid dyed fish.

The green fish where dyed? This was going back 7yrs ago when we orginally got them.
They were a very dull green, no something I said would have been dyed, but I never knew about dyeing then.

BTW I know the bright pink one my friends is dyed, its not a natural colour, its practically neon.

Sounds like they were to me. The fact that the color faded is a pretty good sign, since dyed fish usually lose the artificial color over time. I was probably dull to start with because it had already faded to some extent.
