I picked up a new fish yesterday and I trying to figure out if it is a Midas or a Red Devil or maybe a hybrid? 
Red Devil or Midas???????
- Thread starter D Realist
- Start date
Any differences between the two like size or temperament. I didn't start hearing the name midas until about 8 years ago. I thought they were all RDs. I know the RDs are nasty and I assume the midas are the same.
Good looking fish... Check out the stickies on this subject. Without clear identification from the reputable supplier it can only be assumed it is a midevil.

If you have to ask then it's a midevil. Still a nice looking fish. Unless you get it from a reputable breeder then it's probably always going to be a midevil.
Temperament is the same as a labiatus (true red devil) & citrinellus (midas). Labiatus are more streamlined & usually have big lips especially is wc. Citrinellus are usually bulkier with a blunt snout & males develop a much larger nuchal hump.

RD's have a thick fat lip............MIdas are more pitbull, boxier.............I enjoy the Midas look more than the other.........Look for the prized nuchal hump on the males..........Some get to a size of a golfball...........
Thanks everyone, I was thinking it may have been a mix. He/She has already taken over my tank in less than on day. I may have to move it to its own tank. I will keep an eye on it.
Red devils are more agressive than midas.Midas are more community
