These 4 were sold to me as Freddie's. However after a few months of watching them grow from 1inch to around 3.5 I've noticed that one of them looks completely different. Some info to consider is I bought them from a reputable store and they were all apart of the same fry batch. Anyhow after researching the sexual differences and looking at different pics I am beginning to think that the 4 guy posted is almost twice the size as the other 3 and like I mentioned looks completely different. Is it possible that he is a male or are they possibly Hybrids? Anyhow any help would be greatly appreciated. I've spent hours researching and still can't quite figure it out. Thank you in advance.
