MY FH.. is this a JK?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
thats a tuff one. the color and the pearls on the side and fins make me lean toward a golden based zz. plus the white flower markings on the side makes me believe that it was a normal zz uderwent fading, which would make it a golden based zz. deff not a golden monkey bc it is lacking monkey face and wrapped tail.
JK tend to have 3 SIgnfictaly diff orange/red/pink sections. with the tail/stomache section being bright orange, the gills being deep red, and the head being pink. andother distingishing charateristic is that most jk's i have seen are flowerless.
 
i would also make 100 percent sure if it is drop eye before doing anything. and if u correctly identify the problem as drop eye medicate asap.
while in the process of figuring out.some aquarium salt and a lil bumb of the temp would help stress fish out less and also help him if he is sick.

by the way nice fish.
i love when zz's fade and keep pearls
