Hi all picked up this stunning Thorichthys today while meeting up with friends, at an absolute bargain of a price. Problem is i've had a few different ID's

Possible Outcome is Thorichthys Maclupinnis or Thoricthys Aureus

Doesn't look like a Maculipinnis to me, too much red on him. I'd say Aureum. I'm not 100% sure though.

Definitely a nice pickup. Especially considering how difficult it seems to be to get a true Aureum and not a Mac.

I admit at seeing the first pic I was thinking mac, but as I kept scrolling down I started thinking the same thing...too much red so I agree and I too lean more towards aureus :)
