It IS a hard call. Since you're not sure, make sure not to breed it unless you're acknowledging the mutt potential of it.
 
If you have to question the fish, don't know its history or its source, you can't say that it's a Trimac. By the way it looks, it is some type of Flowerhorn. That's the problem with so many people using Trimacs to make different FHs. It can get confusing when a person is trying to ID their fish. Going through a reputable vendor or hobbyist is the best way to get a Trimac.

you can tell it has some trimac in it, but as stated above, if its not from a reputable person then its most likely not a pure trimac.. you can easily see a mix in this fish
