Hi Everyone,

This fish was sold as vieja Fenestratus, but the colors look quite different to what I can find online. Help please

Thanks!

Moved to ca/sa cichlid section.

Yes that looks like it could be the piebald form, found naturally in Lake Catemaco, markings and color can vary tremendously.

I agree, of all the vieja, looks like the catemaco fenestratus. Very nice fish when they get larger and no 2 look quite alike.

I agree with Duane and Swami. I have kept a few of these over the years and the adult colors can range from almost all white, to a nice piebald mix of white, orange, pink, and black.
