Amphilophus sp. ‘red Isletas’

[pingpong]

I got this guy a few months ago in a group Rapps order. I had originally ordered 3 but this little guy killed the other two in the bag. He's currently a little over 3". Rapps no longer has a picture of them in his gallery but the adults look like red headed barred midas. Has anyone else purchased one of these? I'd like to see any adult pictures because I haven't been able to find any.

He's cute looks like he should colour up nicely...

OMG! He has a hump of that size at 3"! Love the yellow eyes!

Incredible hump for that size, great looking fish.

Whoa, he looks almost exactly like my four inch barred midas. I don't have any, but I almost ordered some once.

I almost ordered a barred midas but then I noticed these guys and thought I'd give them a try.
Before his hump developed he actually looked a lot like a blood parrot but I'm glad he's starting to look a lot better now.

I love that fish!!!I once had a reg.Midas who developed a nice"hump" at around 4-5 inches,guess its in thier genes.

He looks kind of like my barred midas. I only just got mine a few weeks ago, and mine looked as if it had a head that was going to color up red. But here's a picture of him
