Is this a green terror or something else

[jspatriots]

Just picked this little guy up because he look diff. He has white accents instead of orange which i see on the terrors. Is the is a variant?

the common type green terrors are also called gold saums, the new one you've got is a silver saum. The only difference is the trim color, as far as I know.

Looks like a Green Terror to me. Give him some time, it is probably stressed and will color up in a week or two.

From what I understand it is a normal GT, but there is a more uncommon color variant where the orange on the tail is actually white. So yes, it is a GT as it does not look like a Blue Acara, which is the other species commonly confused with the GT.

yup, looks exactly like the one I have but in silver instead of the bright orange fringe to the fins that mine has.

thats a silver saum . green terror could be gold saum , silver saum ,or aequidens rivulatus , which is the "true green terror" . gold saum is the most common .
