He is kinda washed out for color right now. Sorry for the crappy picture quality.

Looks like a regular Barred to me. If yours is a Red isletas mine must be a super red Isletas. Guessing yours is about 6-7"? Nice fish though GREAT head on that guy.

Nah, he's only pushing 4 inches. His color is a bit watered down. He's still adapting to life outside of the pond. I just got him last Wednesday and he hasn't really eaten anything since I got him. I try but he just cowers in the corner.

His color will get better with my picture taking ability and once he starts eating more.
 
the only fish I ever though about ordering from rapps.. These fish have massive heads and ridiculous color. I haven't seen a bad one. Nice fish man, that guy has some real potential. Hope you bought a pair though.
 
Well I bought my guy from Rapps as a Barred " Big head Baby" and mine looks Red Isletas. He has extremely amount of red in him. Here's a decent pic of what I am talking about.

Pic 2 is a bit blurry but it shows the red a bit better. He has like RTM red on him.
