Clear Colorred Betta Sold?

[keithp]

I saw a magnificent male betta being sold, he was completely clear in color, not white or yellow, clear! I could see a bubble inside his body increase/decrease in size when he took a breath of air and his bones!. I called it the x-ray betta, but what is this type really called?

I really have no idea what you would call a Betta like that but he sounds absoloutly gorgeous!

Nevermind just found out, it's called a Cellophane betta. They are completely see through when they are a bit younger, pictured here. <a href="http/ac4.yt-thm-a03.yimg.com/image/205b1a9617cae500" target="_blank">http/ac4.yt-thm-a03.yimg.com/image/205b1a9617cae500

Oh he's gorgeous!! Part of the reason i bought mine is because he was sort of see through...apart from the red dots which are his narkings.

I called him Pinky..(not a very good pic coz hes fighting fin rot right now!)
