Awesome. Love the green coloring.

Wow it's so green that it looks like he has algae growing on him. I wonder if he will retain his coloring over time.

 

[tlindsey]

That is a beautiful Delhezi.

 

[beau1990]

Why is it green though?!

 

[fishhead0103666]

Perhaps it's a recessive trait for color like how the red in red lizard catfish had to be bred out of them to show.

Heavily doubt it. Polys are very varied in terms of colour, so it's probably a mix of catch locality genetics, substrate and lighting. The other polys in the back are also green it seems

Green color is natural and common color for delhezi in wild.
Most of my other WC and CB delhezis have green color like that one.
