I pulled these off of a Google search and I think they look amazing but I dont know if the pictures have been enhanced, they're a rarer lyonsi or maybe just a stressed fish.

Is this a normal color for an Amphilophus lyonsi?

Not too sure if the first pic is altered or not. Its funny that you post this question as i plan to start a thread this week on different colors of Lyonsi. I've noticed many different colors with them and was curious if the colors varied with collection points. I've had males that had really yellow bodies with deep red in the fins(my avatar), olive colored bodies with little red in the fins, and deep red/orange in the body with deep reds in the fins. I've also noticed some with longer snout/nose and some shorter/compact. When i start the thread i'll include photos as well. I still need to photograph my recently acquired male.
The red in this males fins is not too far off from the one in question but again i cannot say for sure whether that one is edited or not.
Is that your male? Is it just the males who have vibrant colors?
Maybe the first pic is edited because the flowerlines are white?
I like the second one because the body is white-ish with a red tail.
Once you get that thread started let us know.

I try not to police photos but there's a pretty easy way to tell who doctors pics if you know how to look =)
Every popular fish photographer on this website uses photoshop or some thing similar to it. Period.
The line is drawn for me when you're doctoring a photo to look more like what your eye sees in real life to adding color that isn't there in real life.
