It's in the FAQ.

FWIW, young common bristlenoses sometimes look like gold marble bristlenoses.

It looks like a few kinds of common types I've had too, including the captive-bred species found at most stores now. A true gold marbled should have a bolder, more irregular pattern from the pics I've seen.

Hope you didn't pay a "gold marbled" premium for it or anything. But it is a nice, healthy looking fish anyway..
