calico's are somewhat rare as only a small portion of a spawning between two calicos will come out calico.  The majority come out either normal striped or pink.  I was always a fan of the calicos myself and kicked myself for not picking up a few really nice breeding pairs that came into the shop I used to work at.

He was fairly cheap. Only $3.99 american. He was in a tank with about 20 different other calicos, 14 striped and, 20 pink. I just had to have one because it was the first time i've seen them in person.
