Checkout the pattern of the Tem in this video and tell me what you think.
I haven't seen a Tem with this type of pattern before.

It's has always been like that!
I have been looking through pics of other memebers Tems and on the internet and haven't found one like it.

I hope to breed them but my assumption that I had 2 pairs my be wrong!!
I thought my two larger Tems were the boys becuase they had different vents from the smaller females. However on inspection today I noticed that 3 of them all had similar vents so now I am confused.
 
Are they from the same brood stock? If so I think it is a colour 'disorder'. He/she can't rid off the lateral black bar since adolescent :D Can't wait to see it put on mating coat sooner.

IMO The body shape is too tem like so I don't think it is a hybrid. Maybe few generations up the family tree it was, who knows?
 
I have had these fish since they were 2-3' fingerlings and are from the same brood stock.
You can find videos of my Temensis school on my youtube channel.
As for a "disorder" I think it's more like a unique pattern that is a mix of juvi and mature traits.
