new unknown p bass

[sassqitchcichlid89]

i got this lil guy about a month ago he is growing nicely about 4-5" now i still cant identify him though... any one here think they can tell what he is so i know what i'm getting into?

he is mainly a nice deep gold color red just starting to show on the bottom half of tail and has any where from three vertical bars to almost three spots sometimes...cant decide if he is either orino or temensis

mono or orino

Not a orino that's for sure. A better profile shot can help me ID the bass.

could his color be washed out because of the white sand

Farmie? Some kind of mono hybrid. Hayn will know for sure

Looks like your standard ocellaris, mono or mono/ocellaris hybrid

I will say mono, the head shape looks to be mono

That's pretty washed out.

yup. I had my tank placed on light brown carpet while I was building a stand and theyre colors washed out dramatically. it's crazy what a good substrate and background can do
