Florecent Red Zebra Danio

I thing I'm alittle lost. Where can I get these "new" glo-fish.

By "new" do you mean the fish that alter their fluorescence based on water quality? If so, these are not currently available to aquarists. The glofish that are currently available express the flourescent gene constantly - these are the ones that you can buy.

The implication is that scientists are in the process of further altering the genome so that the fluorescence gene will be linked to the genes that detect water quality, but this hasn't been done yet.

I mean the ones that don;t alter thier color when in un-poluted water. According to everybody else the ones that get reder as tthe polution gets worse where aroud befor the ones that retianed the red color.
