but it lacks the blue on the tip of the dorsal and tail fins which is present in Breidohri
Its always easier to tell in person because cameras still have a hard time capturing all the colors, but I just think it looks stressed, consequently the color is a little washed out. But im 95% its a breidohri

I mean compare duanes pictures above.. seems spot on.

Its a cool fish. I hope he grows nice and healthy for you. Good luck!

Thats not hartwegi either imho. I think is Coatzacoalcos or Zonatus. Hard to tell which, but im leaning towards Coatzacoalcos. Or could be, like others have said a hybrid including one of the above mentioned

AquaMoJo's Zonatus

These beauties are mine and the blue guy is Coatz

They both were given to me saying they both are vieja hartwegi in person they both look very similar to me just the bigger one is lighter in colour and the upper one is dark
