Blue Acara or Green Terror?

[CanadianBacon]

since iv had this fish (about a year) iv thought it was a blue acara. i was reading a thread today on the diffrences of the two and now im not sure of myself. in the thread it said blue acaras always have a black line through their eye. and green terrors only have it when they are stressed. i dont see one on mine. also can u tell me if its a male or female?

hmmm intresting i bought it as a juvinile blue acara for like 6 bucks...how much do dempseys go for did i atleast get a deal? lol

 

[Dmaan.]

dempseys vary.
some places sell them for under $5.
most places will sell them for $5-$10!

deal depends on where you are at. it looks healthy and has grown into a nice looking female. hope you're enjoying her.
