Those are Red Devils (A. labiatus), not Midas (A. citranellum), nice looking fish. Ken

At what age can you tell the difference Ken? I have been sold one labelled as A. Labiatus..... but I am not sure??

It is them same fish in all pictures. I'm sure it is both a midas and an rd, he just looks more midas than other midas/rd's I have owned, IMO. He's a Petsmart Midas/RD.

I feed him Hikari Gold daily, once a week he gets a cube of frozen brine shrimp and bloodworms. I agree he has grown and changed dramatically since I purchased him on December 15th. It is not easy getting a good pic of him, he never stops moving. I hope he keeps some of his orange coloration, but he sure is turning white. Thanks!

my devil went through similar growth color changes it seems.

he is now fully white, with only a tiny bit of red around his eyes

Not pure citranellum for sure, mouth is way to pointed. Ken

All white with a little orange would be very cool. I can't believe how "white" the white is, get a lot of comments from friends, "wow, that fish is white!".

Great looking RD, nice growth rate.
