Tilapia were first brought to Singapore to be farmed as far back as the 1940s.
Its no wonder they have become feral.

I guess so... I see them in many drains but usually white or black... rarely like this mozambique where the tail is red... the female looks the same but has some yellow beneath the mouth
 
There are many line-bred varients. With fish farmers trying to make them more palatable for the dinner plate.

There are all Pink ones, silver ones, yellow, white, striped variants, high bodied, streamlined, many many morphs, I first kept the black bodied red finned versions in the early 1960s
