Can someone tell me if my new addition is a GT or a BA? The orange on his (or hers, anyone able to let me know if they think its male or female would be appreciated too) fins just showed up this past weekend.... Thank you in advance

Thank you! I thought it was a GT but everything I was reading was confusing - I'm very new at this. I have an equally sized Electric Yellow in w/him.. since his orange tips/yellow tips have appeared though he has been way more active and the Yellow keeps hiding when he/she comes out of the cave this guy chases him across the tank.... Neither of them bother the Placo. Oh yeah the Yellow keeps doing this skid across the bottom of the sand on its side thing... any of that sound odd to anyone?
 
Thank you, no idea what I had..I just thought he was pretty and I had that Yellow being such a bully I had to get something atleast as big if not bigger and in the three weeks I've had him he has REALLY grown fast...
 
Def a gold saum and looks real good too. If your lab is scrapping its side on things you should look really close at it... your looking for tiny white spots that look like salt. Sometimes when fish rub up against stuff its a sign of ick, not always, but be safe n check. Good luck.
