Is this a true Festae?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Looks beat up and a bit stressed, but appears to be legit.
 
It is true festae. The fish is just young and not ugly/stressed. It looks like a little male to me.
 
yup like everyone said, its festae alright, you can tell by the eyespot on the tail (only in top half of tail base instead of taking up most of the base like a mayans would) they drastically change color as they get older, so this one just isnt showing that much color yet, and yes it does look very stressed as well, mine is only 2in and looks way better than that one

a true festae yes, would I buy that ugly, stressed out rendition?, NO!
I'd have to agree.Dont mean to sound negative about it but that fish is in bad shape.
But it could just be a bad picture to. Look at my pics :ROFL: I dont claim to be a photographer but sure as hell know my fish :D
