Can someone please help identify if this little bugger is a true synspila or a cross ??? I got him/her a few days ago as a synspila from lfs, but leary if it is true synspila blood ??? Thanks for any help !!! Upload photos from gallery in a second. The photos are not best, but on dorsal and anal fins there are spots ??? I find weird, and they have a pinkish, redish tinge throughout on those fins??? And throughout body I see lots of blue tones on scales. And if you look closely I see blue/green streaks on face, reminds me what you would see on green terror or dempsey, but I also see red on face- cheecks as you would on an synspila ????? PLEASE HELP !!! By the way he/she is a little over 3 inches..

I bet i bought one of that fishes tankmates a couple weeks ago,lol. If i'm right then everyone i ask is confident its a paratheraps zonatum.I am not convinced of that cause mine is turning more yellowish in the body with red coming thru on the fins and the head.
Im sorry but I think that you are right and wrong, looks like mine even though mine is a juvie hard to tell, But It still does not look like a true synspila, for starters look at my juvie and your photo (thor) see the dots on the dorsal and anal fins? And from your photo the body seems to take on more of an pink/red overtone, maybe a new hybrid????
I also thought that a true synspila had an additional arc (small) above the middle arc around the middle of the fish??? Look up a few good photos on the net???
