People are telling me there are 3 types of varients for 'Zaire Frontosas' - can someone help me determine which varient it is?

I've attached a clearer you tube clip of the fish: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lORCEmUnOLQ

I am pretty sure that we will not be able to know that. It is not something you can figure out. It would be a pure guess, and no way to be sure.

Pick the varient that is the most sought after and go from there.
Obviously they won't be able to tell

Man, those are some messed up fronts. Not only are they deformed and you look to have two males, but they look like they were kept poorly.

I know he was joking, but for others who missed that... Do not make up this type of information. It causes tons of problems for the hobby and breeding. In all seriousness this fish should not be sold with the idea that someone could add it to their breeding group or to make a breeding group.

i did tell people not to breed the fish and to keep it as display only. It's sold today to a nice fella for $30. I pay $150 for it couple weeks ago.

what is wrong with my 6 bar front, is it deformed as well?
