Is it the lighting or did they lose their green?

Wow - what a change. They look like red hooks now. Shame.

K, I need these in my life. Right now.

They have a dull olive green/silver color- nothing like when younger- very peaceful nice fish though

actually if you put them next to a red hook, their body is much more laterally compressed, and the males have a red to 80% of the body. the females have a much longer than redhook anal fin and its black in color.

yes I do, the one you have is the female. the males have the bi-lobed anal fin and is red on the body.

Indeed! They remind me of the saltwater sunfish, when I saw them at your place last time

Where can I find all these cool kinds of silver dollar fish? I've only ever seen regular silver dollars; I didn't know they came in striped, green, etc.
