This little guy is the most faded so far and about 2". Color lightens and darkens but pearls stay shiny white. A very assertive little fish. What do you guys think? The color is deeper red on the others but I like this ones body shape a lot.

I'm sure its a Texas fader it does have pearls they are the white on him. Irridescent white.
He had awesome color this morning after the lights were on about 15 minutes. If I can get more pics after work I will post some.
 
he will get more color in the future!!! Also...you may want to consider a black background......Red Texas and fader fh's tend to have better coloring with that type of background...it makes the orange and red pop!!
 
Yep I want him gone now that I know he's good ha-ha. After this weekend I will be down to ten (from 15) to grow a little more. Some faders, some non faders with lots of pearls and bright red fins as well as a few head scratchers. I will keep only a few to use for further cross breeding.
