tiger, pattern will change once he gets older, cute little guy. kept and fed properly can expect him to be a good 8 to 9" in 8 months.

nice lutino, what size tank?

Yep, they're tiger oscars. And the orange coloration will most likely return as it gets older. Adult oscars tend to be the most colorful.

I saw some that look like the oscar in the first pic and it was labeled as a leopard oscar, and you could tell that the patterns were different on their body.

I'm sure "leopard oscar" is just another common name for tiger oscars. Just a gimmick to sell more fish.
