Yes, that is a nice one. There can be cleaner and there can be far more that are tipped-up a good deal more too. As ghost's mature they will always get tipped-up to various degree, some much more than others. Some ghosts can look basically like anery's as older adults, and this is because the hypomelanism gene in their particular lineage can vary so greatly and be anywhere from a 1 to a 10.

Exceptionally nice clean anery's are often tough to distinguish from certain ghosts in the hobby. Anery's are usually far "dirtier" and tipped in what would normally be their red body rings(RBR), and ghosts are generally much cleaner in them, or not at all. The inner white triad rings are what always get tipped with dark pigment as both types mature.

Here is a great example of a very clean adult anerythristic specimen.....



And here is a ghost that has lots of inner white ring tipping, as well as a substantial amount on what would be the red rings...



A very dark anery that is nearly bi-colored....



A very exceptional looking ghost youngster.....



Another nice adult ghost male.......



nice ghost yearling....



And here is one of the nicest adult breeder ghost's I have ever seen.....
