Is she the colour that's called Caramel or "Orange Tiger"? She is very pretty.

I'm not sure, she is a caramel colour tho, the other siblings were more greeny/grey coloured except one that the owner was keeping to use as a breeder

Here she is exploring

I may be wrong so someone please correct me but caramel phase is a co dominant mutation where as hypo is short for hypomelanistic which means there is a reduction in melanin (black pigmentation).
They are very similar in the coastals but are caused from different things.

She is definitely hypo if this is the case :)
 
My caramel coastal has quite alot of black pigmentation through it aswell as the caramel base color, Your hypo would of been stripped of almost all black pigmentation leaving you with a lighter color that can recognised as caramel. Both bread for color of course just different ways of achieving the similar end result :p
