I've got the fish over here and have gotten some fantastic results
after playing around with the lights a bit. The black light does work
amazingly well for the glow-in-the-dark effect, but the room should be
completely dark for the best results. Otherwise, the best bet is a
bright white light, and the fish should look like the fish in the
pictures on the GloFish web site. It is really impressive!!

The following page has a lot of information on this:

The GloFish that I have seen look very pale also.I bought 2.I have a Black
light and they don't look any different.I Emailed the two company's that
produce them and got a story of haveing to ship imature fish .Just a lot of
hype I guess.It is hard to tell them apart from the regular Zebras.

So I was out helping my sister get things for her tank and what did we
see at the Petland Discounts in Queens but the GloFish. They were $4.88
each, 2 for $8.50.

They weren't as glowie as in the pictures but they weren't under a black
light. They were very red on the top of their body and on the bottom.
The rest of the body was a dull red color.
