Do you think it is a Red Devil or a Midas?

 

[the animal guy]

Red devil.

I have a 7" Red devil, and a 4.5" Wild caught Midas from Rapps I will be looking to rehome.

Do you think it is a Red Devil or a Midas?

It's a hybrid cross, after that it becomes a game of genetic guess work. Some hybrids simply look more like one of their parents (or their parents parent) than the other. Impossible to do anything more than guess when it comes to most of the amphilophus genus, unless one can vet the fish back to a specific collection location.
