RE: dodgy RAC
Hi Ty,
already got a couple of bags so I guess I'll know better in a few month. These fems have quite a bit of blue around the gills and the majority of body scales
have a blue edge. The basic body colour is also slightly diff. The known fish is a slightly gold/brown, these are silver/grey!!
