Dojo Loach

Today I purchased a dojo loach. The people at the pet store told me it was albino, but I am very distrusting and think it might just be a gold.

It's currently only about 3-4 inches long. Is there any way to really tell the two apart or am I going to have to take the store's word for it?

The improved product species of Dojo.
It's called "Hi-Dojo" in Japan.
"Hi" means orange from yellow.
There is width in the deepness of the color.

Its eyes are grey.... definitely looks like the smaller of those two loaches pictured.

Sometimes the golden kind is a light pink so it would be hard to tell but you could get on google images a nd try to look them up
