i went to the pet store and there i saw a cichlid which was labeled a red topped cobalt zebra. the picture looked like it was a very brilliant blue. however the fish was much duller, with an orangish tint to a dull bluish brown. Was the picture modified or something to make it look more brilliant and is this coloration just a morph of a zebra or is it a differnt species.
