midas? red devil? what you think?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
where did you get him from? if the orgin of the fish is a LFS, than you have a Midas/Rd hybrid. I honestly see both fish in it. You cannot get a true non hybrid Lab or Cit from a LFS, you need to get them from a specialty importer like rapps.
 
many many midas and Rd's get different markings, but this does not mean they are pure bred.

there are a few pics of different looking ones here.
but these are purebred-F0 or wild caught.

LFS midas or Rd's are hybrid's.
 
there are naturally occouring hybrid's aswell, but i'm not sure about Rd/midas.

i would like someones opinion on that- Modest man or straightjacketstar may know.
 
Looks RD to me....compare the lips to the pic of the midas......

i agree big lips are usually a sign of red devil while the thin lips are midas..so i definitly think yours is red devil and very nice one at that, i hope it keeps this color as it matures...my red devil ...
