Still a horrid practice. Still not a saltwater fish

That's so sad. This Osphromenus goramy has been injected with dyes to make it prettier...and then put in a saltwater tank? @KarenSaxton it's not albino. Then its eyes would be red or gold. It's a platinum-morph gourami.

That is a freshwater fish. An albino giant gourami to be precise It's color comes from being injected or tattooed with dye. Horrid practice
