Pretty normal or lucky find?? (pic heavy ID help)

I had to go to the local pet shop to get a live feeder for our stubborn albino PH pied gal and my girlfriend wanted to tag along....big mistake. We saw this little cutie at the shop and decided to bring him/her home.

S/he has gorgeous green eyes, some flames here and there, and a really nice "sunset" fade from ventral to dorsal (pics don't show this well). Her/his top lip also has some strange patterning with some yellow, and s/he has a slight head spot.

I'm assuming its a nice looking normal, but my GF is hoping she found a potential gem. Opinions would be great and thanks in advance! :)

Supposed to show "sunset" colors, but flash killed them:

The mottled belly pretty much confirms it.

Normal definitely:gj:

Normal :gj:

I'm color blind so can't be sure on the eyes, but they don't look green to me (like a spider or pastel have). It just looks lighter where the head stripe crosses the eye. Many/most of my normals have this.

Thanks everyone, that's what I thought. What's going on with the eye color? I've never seen a "normal" that doesn't have those black doe eyes (my big normal below). And all my other morphs have some type of eye color that dramatically differs from his.

His/her eye color and pupils are clearly visible without special lighting (the new one above). I have no problem with her/him being a normal, but any thoughts on eye color?

Maru's eyes are a bit lighter, not really pure black, you can see her little pupil in there. I personally think you DID find a gem..But it is a normal gem, and there is nothing wrong with having a few beautiful normals! The eyes on yours are lighter than I've normally seen, but I don't know if they scream morph at me or anything!

But if you ever have a need to breed a normal to something, at least you will be using one of the prettiest normals I've seen!

Mine has that same stripe in the eyes, it just is minor coloration....it happens.

Normal and yes pretty
