Had this guy for a couple months now, he's about 5 inches...starting to lose more of his black top every week. Just wondering what kind he is...I also have a sibling of his who is completely white and about 3 inches...not sure if that helps the id. Also, he does have some kind of a small deformity on his pectoral fins, seems to be getting better with quality food and water but don't think it will completely heal. Anyways, here are his pics and some of his sibling.

Amazing colors. Red eyes, zz pearls and fade I think it's a zz cross. The white one is interesting. Lighting and tank surroundings does have an influence on the color of the fade. Wonder what it will look like when bigger?
 
And I don't want to see a single post saying it's a "pink con cross" because as we all know you won't get the leucististic coloration in the offspring breeding to a non leucististic.
 
Ha ha, no no...They are both from the same batch of fry.....definitely not convict crosses. I can't wait till the bigger one completely fades....suspense is killing me, lol....as far as his sibling, the white FH, any ideas if it is just going to stay white (which would be totally fine)
 
Once they've got to a certain lightness there usually isn't any coming back to a darker color. This one is totally white so it's going to stay that way.
 
Update these guys i like then alot. The pink and orange one is sweet it looks like something really old school.
 
like the whte one. Let me know f you want to sell or trade
