I have a Golden Butterfly. It's very orange with white striations, or is it white with orange striations? Ayhow, as juvies they are just sort of plain orange, but when they start to grow you get this:

It's not a solid orange, but very different looking I think.

Just discus that ive seen in person Kenny has some awesome golden diamonds and also some superb superb shaped flamingos.

I also like the Red Pandas that GulfCoast is currently selling.

Yes I saw those, those are really awsome looking fish. I asked if they will eventually get a full body pattern as some looked only patterned on half the body, still waiting a response. Do you know Eddy? I would really like one of those in my future collection.

IMO most of the Marlboro Reds are more orange than red.

Hello Joan, not sure about those specific ones but generally the Red Pandas from back in the day were not full bodied pattern. Seemed more or less the front half of the body. I really like the large white pearl pattern, so much more appealing IMO. ;)

You might want to check out Albino Leopard Snakeskin from Kenny. pricey, but really nice orange. You can see the strain here. I am seriously thinking about getting it myself. :D

Check out Central Ohio Discus and Mike Beals for the Velvet Rouge. Beautiful fish and come in bright orange with a white/cream face.
