Can one of you all please help me to know just what type of GT, saum, Aequidens or whatever this little guy is. I was never gonna buy these guys but my girlfriends friend just thought that they would look great in her planted tank with her discus and mollies. Thats how I ended up with them and theyve sorta grown on me. They were bought from one of the chain stores and are about 2.5-3'' right now.

Your girlfriend's friend might run into some issues with that combination. The discus maybe, but the mollies for sure might get a beating once her GT starts to put on size. It's a gamble.

Thats why they are one of my tanks along with a pair of festae, a 6'' crenicichla sveni, 4'' con, and a 6'' distochodus. They are gettin along great and actually growing. Someone bought them for my girlfriend to put in with her discus ($200 worth) and mollies but she (girlfriend) had the presence of mind to know that was a bad idea and gave them to me. I knew that those fish of hers didnt stand a chance, or her plants. Thanks for the replies....
 
that a small gold saum too me it looks like a young male its hard to tell u need to see more of a side angle to see the fin pattern if his fins are flowing than hes a male a females fins round out and are very short females also dont have as much blue to them down the body
