Hi, can someone help me identify this fish, its either red devil/bright-red red devil, midas, or flamingo. This tank is sometimes labeled as red devil, sometimes labeled as flamingo, this time it was unlabeled, the employee said he didn't know what it is.
More importantly, is this a male or female?

looks like a standard labiatus citrinellus mix - which means it is a mix between a midas and red devil and will grow to be big and bad ass. Keep us posted.
oh hybrid =( no wonder it is so much redier than a regular red devil. Thanks but do you know how to sex him? all of them have rounded dorsal fin, petstore said this one looks male.


Edit: How big will it get?

My guess is male red devil.
glad to hear that, cuz all other 6 fishes are females.
 
difficult to sex an RD, esp at the size.

Definately the standard mix. Keep the carotenes high or the red will fade.
