Big Daddy Severum I want one - You Keepers explain

[Adamrhh]

Hey

Well check this out, my 75 g is empty so I want a Severum just one for right now.. I really like the Reds and Golds.. but my shop only has golds/greens right now.. and unless you convince me there not just tan but big bright and beautiful and can easily stick out with future fish that would be white (I'm getting a albino T oscar) I just want it to easily be seen as from another persons perspective to see TWO DIFFERENT fish.

So that's why... when I seen what I call big daddy (for now)

I don't want one that looks like this though..

Will a "Green Severum" get to be like those 2 first links?

I'm thinking Green Sev/Albino Oscar I think a big white oscar with a nice dark green big fish would look nice.. because I personally like Albino Oscars better.. but I don't want 2 big white fish since its only going to be 2 so thats where the gold comes in at .. would it easily be GOLD and white? I've never seen a adult green or gold sev in person before ((( so sorry for dumb questions

Look at Jeff Rapps' site tangledupincichlids.com. He has a pic of an adult Red Sev as well as a adult rotkiel sevs. I bought two 3in red sevs from him and I am really happy with the quality. One beats the hell out of the other but thats's a different topic. I wouldn't call their color red - more of a deep orange, and the coloration is spotted rather than solid like a gold sev. Gold Sevs are pretty but Reds look much better IMO.

Is the gold a while difference between a albino oscar?

Yes - the coloration of a gold sev is way different than an albino oscar.
