I noticed some bahias looked better than other. I thought all bahias came from the same parents in Taiwan. Can some shed some light on this?

Inbreading, your f1's are going to be the most colorful and least deformations, aside from WC. Same as with dogs and other animals, the more Inbreading the more genetic flaws you're going to get.
You hear of WC bahias around and I thinks it's bull, the reliable venders have not seen any from what I'm told. It's just some venders trying to rip people off for a few extra bucks, Buyers beware!

Now I wonder if the fish on the bottom is a Bahia. The fish on the top way looked way nicer at 7" compared to my 7".

Im still wondering about mine. Mine looks like the one the OP posted but the second one. it has no spangles on the anal fin. its 4-6"
 
Mine had very little spangles even at 12". Bassinmike kept telling me to be patient then litterally in one week at about 13" it looked like it robbed Mr.blings neighborhood jewelry store lol

I'd like to see pics before and after if you care to share.:headbang2
 
Isn't bahia a region down there? And if it is that means there's probably different kels in different water ways. So there could be other kels out there that are labelled wc Bahia kels and not look like the bahia's from Asia. Bahia's from Asia all look pretty close to me with very little difference.
