[Socrates]

I used to have a bunch of these in my fresh water tank a decade ago.

I just today went looking for some pictures and found out that when they say "PAINTED" they mean that literally. I always thought it was just descriptive like the "painted desert" or something like that.

Turns out they inject a dye into part of the fish to give them pink or green stripes.

Seems to be kind of controversial. Lots of people sying it makes them prone to disease and shortens their life span. I don't think I'll buy more of them, just seems to Franken-Fish, but for the record mine lived for a long time, a couple of years I think.
