True...no matter what color I get, they always turn yellow or orange in my tanks. I bought some snowshines from Tammi...beautiful black with bright silvery white saddle markings...loved them. 3 weeks later I had..you guessed it...Yellow seahorses lol. Don't get me wrong...I love orange and yellow. I was just wanting a pair of blacks and a pair of yellows together. The contrast in the tank was awesome...for 3 weeks.
