I'd say it has some potential to be a really nice looking FH when mature but like Ruturaj said tho can't be entirely certain on how the kok will turn out. It may get one it may not, only time will tell. Granted tho with the colors and pearling it's got so far is say it's got some good potential to be a very nice looking fish regardless of kok size.Couple better pics.
love the color onit, good fin shape, and showing pearls across the forehead.

That Synspilum is beautiful. I had a beauty years back that lived for seven years or so. I got him when he was 4 inches. My question right now is are you sure yours is a male?

Nope. No potential there. Best to just max out his credit card and flush him down the terlet.
Don't be 100% set on its gender just yet. Once it gets to 4in take it out and vent it just to make certain. Lol I thought that my female (Big Bertha) was a male for the longest time due to how big her kok is but one day I got curious and took her out to vent and found out that what I thought was a he turned out to be a she. Also she has no dorsal spot signifying that she was female.I think it might be a female I see some black spots in the dorsal. Going to be interesting to see how thisbone
cold hearted lol
