Just picked him up from my LFS. He was labeled as a Manny, but looking at pics of both species as juvenile I think its really hard to tell. I tried messaging frank from pfury but he hasn't logged on since 2013 it says. Was hoping someone here could help

Thank you so much for the reply. Can’t wait to get him huge. When he hits 7” he’s getting his own 300 gallon. Been my dream fish for about 13 years now
no problem.. i got a 5” manny as well.. slow growers..so 7” is prolly in 2-3 years lol

Outside of reds and a hollandi I haven't had the pleasure of keeping these species. I plan on getting a diamond rhom in maybe a year or two. I found a real cool LFS that has a bunch of rare finds that you really only find online sellers having.

My plan is to name one Tyson and one Deontay (the two greatest heavy weights right now)
