I heard this is what happens when you use multicolored(clown puke) gravel and fake castles for decorations.

in all seriousness, those are some of the creepiest creatures in the water. If I had to chose between a cave full of these fish and the one from The Descent, id take the Descent

Blind cave variant of the Barbel fish (Sinocyclocheilus grahami).
Insane!!!

Proof of evolution these blind cave fish are. I wonder how many hundreds of years it takes for a normal fish to evolve to blind and colorless.

I also wonder what crossing a normal one with a blind cave dweller would give you.
