Thats what I was askinig? Did the seller tell you what it was and is this a quiz? Or are you trying to figure it out? :)

It was offered to me and as I spend a lot of time rescuing things like this I would like to know what he / she is like a lot of big fish, people don’t seem to ask before they purchase.

Looks like a TSN x RTC hybrid. In the UK these are sold under the name "Leopard cat" in the north. Trade price for a 2" individual is £2.73 about $5.50. One of the worst possible hybrids to grace the hobby IMHO. They were originally developed for the food market.

I could really do with a side on shot and a better look at the tail as the pattern varies quite a bit with these, before being 100% positive. Saying that I know RTC's have been crossed with other species and this experimentation is still going on. Has anyone seen any of the RTC x Pangasius hybrids? Ugly in the extreme!

Definitely looks like a Marble crossed with a Redtail cat. Very pretty one at that. I'll put what money I have on that answer.

But the rear dorsal fin gives it away its a RTCxMarble hybrid
