couldn't get pics of the fish today cuz something came up. Will try again tomorrow...sorry guys =(

there are prolly hoduran red points. they have a very bright blue sheen to them when they are small. the pic above is a reg con. i have 4 male convicts 4-5inches that have a lot of blue on there tails but as far as there bodies go there plain ol convicts.

kinda figured it was. Just strange that it has so much blue on it. The pic doesnt show it at all really. It does change colors a lot though

here's a pic i got from google of hrps, do they look like that?

 

[xylpheon]

actually YES! it looks very similar to the one on the right! Are they able to breed with convicts? or no?

it's a honduran red point then. i wouldn't see why they wouldn't be able to breed with cons. cons have pretty low standards when it comes to other fish haha. i'd say get two hrp's, they already look enough like a con and the fry might lose most of the blue... although the girls might pick up some orange on their bellys. i take it back, see if they'll breed and keep me posted what they look like haha.
