Out of my 16 demasoni that are about 4 months old, 3 have colored up nicely, 10 are still pale looking, and 3 look like pale demasoni, however, their top fin has an orange stripe (similar to how a lab has a black stripe). Here are my questions: Is it normal to have 10 demasoni that are still pale? Most importantly, are the 3 demasoni with the orange-striped dorsal fin hybrids?
I got 9 of the demasoni free from a CL seller that had them mixed with bumblebees, labs, and a couple other species. I didn't know better then. The remaining 7 I got from a breeder at the Chicago swap.
Here are some pictures of the orange stripe on the dorsal fin. Sorry about the picture quality, but you can still see the orange.
