A really nice super red

[stratos]

I have a really nice super red in my home tank right now:

It is 3-4 years old, still developing its red colouration. The head and body shape are perfect in my opinion.

Very, very nice!!!

If i may ask, how big is he/she?
Just curious to know size versus age to see what i can expect

Yes, the size would give me/us a nice visual! Btw, it seems to be breathing pretty hard, think you might wanna throw an air pump/stone in with it. Nice red I must admit!

Fish is 20 inches long. As noted in original post it looks to be a chilli red. At under four years of age, this fish is only now beginning to get its adult colouration. I expect the chilli colour of the gill plate and scale rims to spread across most of the body over the next few years. Here is a video under white lights, where you can see the chilli colour much better:
