Actually might be a diamond neon...wouldn't doubt if it's a common neon though...

I don't think it's a diamond head neon. I'm pretty certain it's a regular neon. The diamonds have a bright blue sheen to the head, which yours does not have. That fish is sickly looking IMO and if it's representative of what the others are like I would not buy from that store.
