New FH, please help id and grade

[vincenzo]

Hey everyone,

I just picked this guy up about a week ago and would like some help to id and possibly grade him. I haven't kept track of all the different variations over the years so i could use a little help. He's about 4 inches total length and i'm led to believe he's a red dragon zz? I purchased him based on looks and character. Hopefully i didn't overpay for him. Let me know what you think.

Thank you

Nice Red Dragon...he sure will look good in the future as the red intense some more. How much did you pay for him?

Very nice little Red Dragon!

Zz male I don't really have a rating scale for fish but he's going to be a nice one. Id say he's worth about $80-120 (that's about the cost of them + shipping) at that size but I wouldn't pay that much.

hey mate, im an amature at grading these guys but i would say it is an a grade on this basis,

the solid flowerline that is 75 - 100%

and the kok,

but a downside to this guy is the finnage is slightly bizar and should idealy wrap arround the tail a big more, but other than that not a bad zz red dragon mate.

this is my "A: grade juvi red dragon zz baring in mind he is only 7cm, so arround 2.5"

hope this helped

[Yank-Keeper-Scott]

was that to me?

 

[Yank-Keeper-Scott]

well i would actually grade it "AA" because of the not overly big kok and because it has quite an elongate body
