Hartwegi

[notho2000]

It's a Paraneetroplus cf fenestratus 'Lago Catemaco' female or piebald fenestratus. Here's a pic of mine for comparison. It is as fully colored as it will get, if it's anything like mine. She is 3 years old and her color hasn't changed for at least 2 years. IME, males of this variant turn pretty much entirely white, but the females hold the piebald coloration.

Thanks for the info, I'm guessing female after seeing yours and waking up this morning to her egg tube out and her and my flowerhorn, which I posted about yesterday in the hybrid section as well, doing the sexy dance. Lol

It's interesting to learn that a male Calico Fene can be all white. I have a white Fene that looks exactly like Jim's male Fene, and have been debating whether it is a male or female. It paired up with my male regular colored Fene but never lay eggs, and the reproductive tube looks more like sperm tube than egg tube. So I am leaning towards believing it is a male, but why two males paired up?

Also not sure it anyone is looking for one of these piebald fenestratus in the central Indiana area, but Uncle Bills in Greenwood has them in regularly. Labeled as hartwegi.
