looks just like mine only mine misses one pectorial fin and the caudal fin altogether. This along with the such prevalent amelanism and albinism tells me they are being bred over and over again within one gene pool, which leads to genetic mutations. I know these are farm raised for food, so what we get are probably from those poor sources.
