Nice Asian, it looks to be a banjar red. Only time will tell bro. He/She looks really nice already. Sorry to hear that you got a fake certificate at least you didnt get a fake Asian aro. Btw, welcome to MFK...

Red color can take time sometimes over 12 years can pass before he colors up.

How big is it? Fish take time to develop colour. Pics of certificate?

eh i dont know about the legitimacy of that cert but it is definitely an asian aro, i would recommend a 5x2x2 or a 6x2x2 as a good tank size, but bigger is better
