I obtained this fish a year ago and thought it was a male coatz. . but im starting to change my mind on what it really is . Its really hard to get a clear picture because this fish is super hyper ! Can anyone sex and id this fish ? Thanks

It looks to be a zonatus or coatz. I can't make out the pic that well on my phone

looks like zonatus to me. but the black bars across the nose kinda throw me off

Zonats x Hartwegi?

Photos not clear but it looks like mine. So must be Zonatus.

hmm it does look a lot like a zonatus . It could explain why its beginning to become hyper aggressive and its massive growth rate in the last 6 months. Ill try to take better pictures . Its hard with a phone ! haha. . It had a bar going across its body for a long long time and was not as thick as it is now. Like I said within the last 6 months it has put on some serious girth and length. and now im starting to think this fish is not a coatz because the black bar running vertically across its body is completely gone and its starting to have more of the photo above features .
