I think "orange laser" and "gold laser" are the same fish...CW-010. Anyway, pics in the cat-e-log suggests this. I have some fish myself that changes from gold to orange depending on light conditions.

CW-14 is a red-striped/shouldered fish.

Someone please correct me if I'm far off :)
Best regards,

The Cory CW014 is referred to as Cory orange or red stripe. It is not one of the laser types, these are C, aeneus shaped and have a curved stripe which is at its brightest near the head and fades towards the the caudal. The colour of the stripe varies between red and orange depending on the darkness of the substrate.
