Need ID help on my Silver Dollars

[hbluehunter]

I bought these 2 big SD's from a lfs and have never seen any with the red/orange spots these two have.. Can anyone tell me what kind of silver dollars these are?? I have 4 others in the tank and they don't have the same markings.

breeding coloration, it will get more intense. almost all silver dollar types get it. eventually

But would it stay permanently ?? These 2 SD's have had these markings since i bought them 4+ months ago and never goes away ?? And i haven't seen any breeding behavior..

They look rather like 'luna' morph red hooks. If that's the case, it's quite possible those colors are permanent.

My big red hooks have the same spots.

strollo: are yours 'luna' or just normal red hooks? I posted about this trying to get clarification but no one answered. I want redhooks, but I don't care for the look of lunas, so this is important to me... lol

To my knowledge they are Red hooks but who knows.

LOL

That seems to be about the same story with getting an ID on any silver dollar!

Thanks bro! :beer:
