What color is it?

I went to the LFS last night to pick up some angelfish. They're both doing great. Eating fine, getting along perfect with each other and my other fish, and they both are quite healthy.

But I have one question. I'm having trouble determining the color of the gray ghost/blushing one. He/she is completely gray with no markings besides faint gold markings on his head and scattered around his body. I'm sure he's a blushing something, but I'm confused about the gold markings.

I looked on http://www.theangelfishsociety.org/p..._library_2007/ and found nothing, but maybe some of you have an idea.

I also have a gold one, and I'm assuming his/her color is simply just gold, though my brother and I noticed that s/he seems to have some faint leopard markings, but we're not sure.

Any ideas?

I would say its a blue blusher. Check this link out and see what you think. Look about half way down the page. You may have to copy and paste the link

Thanks! That sounds about right! I never considered blushing blue. Thanks a bunch!

That top picture does look a bit like my gold one. Maybe he's some variation of cobra?
