Green Terror Vs Blue Acara

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
white saum isn't the true GT. there are gold saums, white saums and then the true GT which also has white trimmed fins. there is a difference between a true GT and white saum. if you found it in your lfs for under $30 then it's a white saum. :thumbsup:
 
Are white saums and silver saums the same or are they from different locations?
 
lets face it, so much interbreeding has occured, in nature, and from fish breeders who don't know any better that we are left with quite a mess.
 
when young blue acaras and gt's can be very hard to identify as they look similar but as they grow the difference becomes a bit more obivous.
I had a green terror that was sold as a blue acara and he was a mean little fish but attractive all the same.
 
i would be willing to bet you have a pair of green terrors. one male one female. if theres orange on the tail; probably gt IMO, my female is waaay darker and smaller than my male, but as she gets bigger, her colour is starting to come out. i bought them at the same time, the male is like 5 inches and the female is 3 or so. and shes just starting to colour. my male was very colourful right from the start.
