Show your Vieja Melanura From Rapps

[FishKing5]

Does anyone have any adult melanura of the colorful orange/gold/blue 'Laguna Yaxha, Guatemala' race they got from rapps, if so, you should share some pics. I have a group of juvies right now but would like to see what some adults look like. Thanks

Mine is a male, and don't get much hump. I think it varies with individual and environment. I think the red head varieties get bigger hump.

Do you know if these melanura are the same as the lake peten strain? From the research I've done, the lake peten strain are very orange in color.
