Like the title states, a trip to my lfs I spot this little guy.. Tried for a while to figure out what it could be because it was unlabeled, I asked the owner, she said he was a trade in and she couldn't figure it out ether. She said the owners family had brought it in. It was the only fish alive in a 120g. The owner had died at his apartment and hadn't been found till a month later. When the family I guess got rid of his stuff and this fish. Any guess to what it is. I picked it up for 7$

Also the goldfish and turtle I could not remove from the tank, also I did not do any of the decorating. Lol

It's in a 30g for now with all my 99 cent community fish, platys, red eye tetras, zebra and pearl danios. I wanted him to grow out pretty quick with all these dithers.

Also in with my gf's parrot Fish sorry for the crumy pics best I could get of the quick bugger

Probably a vieja hybrid... Looks like its in the process of "peeling" when the fish loses its grey and black pattern and turns yellow/orange. Any other pictures of the little guy?
