No, not exactly. Better looking IMO.

Never trust a man with an outrageously long pinky nail.

it is not a super red texas
but it is a very niiice specimen for Jin Kang FH
i mean its got great pearls, which is not the case usually
niiice fins and neat coloration

but the price is a little bit on the expensive side, but then again it all depends whether u think the fish is worth that much

Ic I'm new to the cichlid game more of a datnoid guy but what is the difference between a SRT and the fish listed in the thread?

 

[FIN01]

Main difference is that fish is pretty far removed from a texas compared to an SRT. The pearls could be from a texas, but the fins and body shape are not close to most SRT's. Cool fish though.
