Little green terror slightly strange though

[electroshadow]

Well another £1.95 rescue.... I must stop going in my local fish importers.

I picked up a small green terror or what I believe to be a green terror. Although his curdial fin has a white line tip to it instead of orange and his dorsal fin has 70% orange tips and 30% white towards the rear....

It might change once he is settled in as he looks a little tatty as he was housed with 15+ 2-3" jd's. Only been in the tank an hour and happily eating.

As you know there are different variations, It would probably be best to let him heal up a bit to decide which...
here's an older thread for a bit of info/pics though.

Thanks for that very informative, I never knew there were 3 types.

I'm hoping this could turn into rivalatus due to the black spot on the lower cheek and the white lines.

Looks to me like a "White Saum". Looking to be quite a stunner once it heals and puts on some size. Nice pick up

Yea it might be a silver saum

Its nearly 50% 50% orange , white.

Looks some sort of hybrid colouration. Going to feed him well and see what happens

This is a Green Terror but identifying the type of Green Terror tends to be difficult considering the hue of the water; either a lot of ammonia or a lot of tannins, but either way it is difficult to identify. However, the fish is not an A. Stalsbergi. If i were to guess, it would appear to be a Gold Saum, but I can not say this with accuracy due to the environment. I hope this helps!

Not a hybrid. I mean the purity of the strain perhaps, but the characteristics of the Green Terror, nah.
